A child with urticaria weighing 44 lbs (20 kg)
Question 2 of 5
The health care provider has prescribed diphenhydramine (Benadryl) 5 mg/kg/dose for a child with urticaria weighing 44 lbs. (20 kg). Assume this is a safe dose. The medication is supplied as 12.5 mg/5 ml. How many milliliters will the nurse administer to the child for one dose? Record your answer using a whole number.
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The child weighs 20 kg; 5 mg/kg * 20 kg = 100 mg. The medication is 12.5 mg/5 mL, so 100 mg * 5 mL / 12.5 mg = 8 mL. [Note: The original document incorrectly states 40 mL, which is a calculation error.]
