A nurse is preparing to administer aripiprazole 0.02 g PO to a client. How many mg should the nurse administer? (Round the answer to the nearest whole number. Use a leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero.)
mg
Explanation & Rationale
Identify the Given Dose: The prescribed dose is 0.02 grams (g). Convert Grams to Milligrams: We need to convert grams (g) to milligrams (mg) because the question asks for the answer in milligrams. There are 1000 milligrams in 1 gram (1 g = 1000 mg). 0.02 g x 1000 mg/g = 20 mg Round to the Nearest Whole Number: 20mg
