There is an order to give acetaminophen 0.5 g po for a temperature greater than 38c. you have acetaminophen 250mg tablets. mrs. smith now has a temperature of 38.1 how many tablets do you prepare for her? show the steps to how you got the answer?

Convert the grams into milligrams. 0.5 = 500 (to covert you'll multiply .5  x 1000).

D/H x Q will be the formula to use now that we have like terms (mg).

D= dose to give

H = dose that is supplied

Q= quantity to give

In this case your numbers will be

D = 500mg

H = 250mg

Q = 1 tablet

500 ÷ 250 = 2

2 x 1 = 2

 So, that means you will give 2 tablets to your patient.
