An intramuscular medication is given at 20 mg/kg of body weight. If you give 560 mg of medication to a patient, what is the patient’s weight in pounds? (1 kg = 2.20 lbs)

62 lb

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

Dosage of the intramuscular medication: 20 mg/kg of body weight

Mass of the intramuscular medication: 560 mg

Step 2: Calculate the body weight of the patient

560 mg IM × (1 kg BW/20 mg IM) = 28 kg BW

Step 3: Convert the body weight of the patient to pounds

We will use the relationship 1 kg = 2.20 lb.

28 kg × (2.20 lb/1 kg) = 62 lb
