Question 1 of 5
A nurse is preparing to administer metronidazole 2 g PO to a client who has trichomoniasis. Available is metronidazole 250 mg tablets. How many tablets should the nurse administer?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: 8 tablets.
To calculate the number of tablets needed, divide the total dose (2 g) by the dose per tablet (250 mg). First, convert 2 g to mg (2000 mg).
Then, divide 2000 mg by 250 mg per tablet, which equals 8 tablets. This ensures the client receives the correct total dose.
Choice B, 4 tablets, is incorrect as it does not provide the full 2 g dose.
Choice C, 2 tablets, is only half the required dose.
Choice D, 1 tablet, is too low and would not provide the necessary treatment for trichomoniasis.
