    Calculation

    A nurse is preparing to administer 1.5 tsp fluconazole oral suspension PO to a toddler who has systemic candidiasis. The nurse should recognize that this is equivalent to how many mL? (Round the answer to the nearest tenth. Use a leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero.)

    mL

    Explanation & Rationale

    Identify the given information: Volume of fluconazole oral suspension: 1.5 tsp Use the conversion factor: 1 tsp = 5 mL Set up the conversion: 1.5 tsp x (5mL / 1 tsp) Calculate the result: 1.5 tsp x 5 mL/tsp = 7.5 mL Round the answer to the nearest tenth: 7.5 mL
