Question 1 of 5
The patient is receiving 30 mg of citalopram daily for depression. Citalopram is available in 20 mg scored tablets. How many tablets should be administered? (Round to the nearest tenth.)
Correct Answer: 1.5
Rationale: The correct answer is 1.5 tablets.
To calculate this, we divide the daily dose (30 mg) by the tablet strength (20 mg). 30 mg / 20 mg = 1.5 tablets. This ensures the patient receives the prescribed dose. Other choices are incorrect because they do not accurately calculate the number of tablets needed based on the given information.
