A nurse is caring for an infant who weighs 12 lb and is prescribed cefuroxime sodium 15mg/kg PO every 12 hours. Available is cefuroxime sodium oral solution 125mg/5mL. How many mL should the nurse administer per dose? (Round the answer to the nearest tenth. Use a leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero.)

Rationale: Step 1: Convert weight from pounds to kilograms: 12 lb ÷ 2.2 = 5.45 kg Step 2: Calculate dose per administration: 15 mg/kg × 5.45 kg = 81.75 mg ≈ 82 mg per dose Step 3: Determine mL per dose using available concentration: 125 mg : 5 mL = 82 mg : X mL Cross multiply: 125 × X = 82 × 5 125X = 410 X = 410 ÷ 125 = 3.28 ≈ 3.3 mL
