    Calculation

    A nurse is preparing to administer bupropion 0.3 g PO daily to a client. How many mg should the nurse administer? (Round off 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 0.3 grams (g). Convert Grams to Milligrams: We need to convert grams (g) to milligrams (mg) because medication dosages are often expressed in milligrams. There are 1000 milligrams in 1 gram (1 g = 1000 mg). 0.3 g x 1000 mg/g = 300 mg
