    Calculation

    A nurse is preparing to administer clonidine 0.3 mg at bedtime to a client. The amount available is clonidine 0.1 mg/tablet. How many tablets should the nurse administer per dose? (Round the answer to the nearest whole number. Use a leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero.)

    tablets

    Explanation & Rationale

    To calculate the number of tablets, divide the required dose (0.3 mg) by the available tablet strength (0.1 mg/tablet): 0.3 mg ÷ 0.1 mg/tablet = 3 tablets.
