A client receives a prescription for ciprofloxacin 400 mg intravenously (IV) every 12 hours to be infused over an hour. The IV bag contains ciprofloxacin 400 mg in dextrose 5% in water (D5W) 200 mL. The nurse should program the infusion pump to deliver how many mL/hr? (Enter numerical value only.)

Step-by-Step Calculation Step 1: Determine the total volume to be infused. The IV bag contains 200 mL of solution. Step 2: Determine the infusion time. The infusion time is 1 hour. Step 3: Calculate the infusion rate. Infusion rate = Total volume ÷ Infusion time Infusion rate = 200 mL ÷ 1 hour Result: The infusion rate is 200 mL/hr.
