A client receives a prescription for amoxicillin 2 g/clavulanate 125 mg by mouth every 12 hours for 10 days. The medication is available in 10C mg/62.5 mg extended-release tablets. How many tablets should the nurse administer? (Enter numerical value only.)

- To calculate the number of tablets, divide the prescribed dose by the available dose. - Prescribed dose: 2 g amoxicillin + 125 mg clavulanate - Available dose: 1000 mg amoxicillin + 62.5 mg clavulanate - Number of tablets = (2 g / 1000 mg) + (125 mg / 62.5 mg) - Number of tablets = 2 + 2 - Number of tablets = 4 - The nurse should administer 4 tablets every 12 hours for 10 days.
