1. An elixir of Aprobarbital contains 50 mg of aprobarbital in each 5 mL. How many milligrams would be used in preparing 1 L of the elixir? *Whole number. Indicate the unit. Equivalent volume of 1L (liter) elixir in milliliters (mL) = Amount of Aprobarbital in milligram to prepare 1L of elixir =
Use Factor Method in solving the problems:
Step 1. Using the following equation, determine the factor that defines the multiple or the decimal fraction of the amount of formula to be prepared:
Quantity of formula desired/Quantity of formula given = Factor
A factor greater than 1 represents the multiple of the formula, and a factor less than 1 indicates the fraction of the formula to be prepared.
Step 2. Multiply the quantity of each ingredient in the formula by the factor to determine the amount of each ingredient required in the reduced or enlarged formula.
