A 175-lb patient is to undergo surgery and will be given an anesthetic intravenously.  The safe dosage is 12 mg/kg of body weight.   Determine the maximum dose of anesthetic that should be used.   ( 1 lb. = 454 g ) [a] mg

The recommended maintenance dose of beclomethasone dipropionate (BECLOVENT ), an aerosolized inhalant, is 100 mcg administered twice daily.

A patient weighs 164 pounds (1.000 pound = 0.454 kg). The patient requires a dose of a drug that is 4.50 mg/kg of body weight. You have a stock solution of the drug that is at a concentration of 60,000 ppm. The density of the stock solution is 1.16 g/mL. The drug has a molecular mass of 623.87 g/mol. You decide to give the patient the drug using an i.v. bag (intravenious injection) with a volume of 1.00 L and pump it into the patient at a rate of 10.0 ml/min. What volume of the stock solution of the drug do you need to add to the i.v. bag in order to ensure that the patient gets the correct dose?

Prior to a colonoscopy, a patient is instructed to take OSMOPREP tablets each of which contains 1.102 g sodium phosphate monobasic monohydrate and 0.398 g sodium phosphate dibasic anhydrous. T he dose is: The evening before the procedure: 4 tablets with 8 ounces of clear liquids every 15 minutes for 5 cycles Starting 3 hours before the procedure: 4 tablets with 8 ounces of clear liquids every 15 minutes for 3 cycle How many tablets, how much liquid, and how much total sodium phosphates are taken? (a) 8 tablets, 16 ounces liquid, 2 g sodium phosphates (b) 16 tablets, 1000 mL liquid, 32 g sodium phosphates (c) 32 tablets, 1 quart liquid, 40 g sodium phosphates (d) 32 tablets, 0.5 gallon liquid, 48 g sodium phosphates

A patient weighs 165 lb and is receiving a medication via an IV (600 mg/500 mL) infusion at 20 mL/hr per volumetric pump. How many mcg/kg per minute is being given? (1 mcg = 1 μg).
