Question 1 of 5

The healthcare provider prescribes penicillin 800,000 units intramuscularly (IM) for a patient with a streptococcal infection. The vial available is labeled Penicillin 50,000 units/mL. How many mL should the nurse administer? (Enter numeric value only. If rounding is required, round to the nearest tenth.).

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The healthcare provider prescribed 800,000 units of penicillin and the vial available is labeled 50,000 units/mL.
To calculate the number of mL to administer, you need to divide the total number of units prescribed (800,000) by the number of units per mL (50,000). This gives you a result of 16 mL.
