Question 1 of 5
Vistaril 75 mg IM is ordered for anxiety. Available: 50 mg/mL. How many milliliters will the nurse administer?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: 1.5 mL.
To calculate the amount to administer, divide the ordered dose (75 mg) by the available concentration (50 mg/mL). 75 mg / 50 mg/mL = 1.5 mL. This ensures the patient receives the correct dose.
Choice A (1 mL) is incorrect because it would be insufficient.
Choices C (2 mL) and D (2.5 mL) are incorrect as they exceed the calculated amount.
