Question 1 of 5
A nurse is providing discharge teaching to the parent of a child who is prescribed diphenhydramine 25 mg elixir every 4 hr as needed. The amount available is diphenhydramine elixir 12.5 mg/5 mL. How many mL should the nurse administer per dose? (Round the answer to the nearest tenth. Use a leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero.)
Correct Answer: A
Rationale:
To determine the mL per dose, divide the prescribed dose by the concentration of the medication. In this case, 25 mg รท 12.5 mg/5 mL = 10 mL.
Therefore, the correct answer is A: 10 mL. The other choices are incorrect because they do not reflect the correct calculation based on the prescribed dose and concentration of the medication.
