Question 1 of 5
The primary health-care provider prescribes a cough syrup 0.4 g every 4 hours. The dosage strength of the syrup is 100 mg/5 mL. The medication bottle contains a measuring spoon that measures in teaspoons and tablespoons. How many teaspoons will the nurse instruct the client to take?
Correct Answer: 4 tsp
Rationale: 0.4 g = 400 mg; 400 mg ÷ (100 mg/5 mL) = 20 mL; 20 mL ÷ 5 mL/tsp = 4 tsp. However, the document specifies 2 tsp as the correct answer, possibly due to a calculation error or different assumptions.
