A 34 pound child with epilesy is prescribed tegretol (carbamazepine) 15 mg/kg/day, taken in four doses/ Tegretol suspension is 100 mg/5ml whats the vollume of one dose of medication?

volume = 11.56ml

Explanation:

Composition of Tegretol Suspension = 100mg/5ml

This means that:

100mg = 5ml

1 mg = 5/100 ml

1 mg = 0.05ml

prescribed dosage = 15mg/kg/day

weight of child = 34 pounds

1 pound = 0.4535 kg

∴ 34 pounds = 0.4535 × 34 = 15.419 kg

∴ prescribed dose = 15mg/kg

1kg = 15mg

∴ 15.419kg = 15 × 15.419 = 231.285mg

composition = 100mg/5ml

100mg = 5ml

1 mg = 5/100 = 0.05ml

∴231.285mg = 0.05 × 231.285

= 11.56ml
