A doctor has ordered 62 .5 microgram of benzotropin to a client, but the pharmacy has dispensed 0 .125 milligram tablet.
00:14
How on the tablet will you administer to the client? so you can see there is a inconsistency in the unit.
00:22
One is 62 .5 microgram, or we can write it down in mcg.
00:30
Use this and then you have 0 .0 .1 .25 milligram.
00:39
So you can see that we have to convert milligram to microgram.
00:43
So we know that each milligram is in fact a thousand microgram.
00:52
So then 100, 0 .125 milligram can be converted into 125 microgram.
01:00
So this is for every tablet.
01:05
Now, the client only needs 62 .5 microgram.
01:12
Now, each tablet is 125.
01:15
So this means that the number of tablet is the amount the client needs, divide by the amount in each tablet, actually is 0 .5 tablet.
01:39
You have half a pill.
01:42
That's the first question.
01:45
Second question.
01:48
So the client has ordered a codeine 2 tablet qid, which is 4 time a day.
01:55
The stock stress of coding is 30 milligram per tablet.
02:00
How many milligram of coding will the client receive per day? so first of all, the dosage per administration is two tablets of coding at a time and each codecoding contain 30 milligrams.
02:18
So from here you can see that 2 times 30 milligram per tablet equals a total of 60 milligram.
02:35
So each administration is 60 milligram.
02:40
Now the number of administration per day is qid, four times a day.
02:52
So this means that you're going to have to take 60 per dose.
03:01
You have four doses a day...
