A nurse is preparing to administer exenatide 10 mcg subcutaneous every 12 hr. Available is exenatide 250 mcg/mL. How many mL should the nurse administer per dose? (Round the answer to the nearest hundredth. Use a leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero.)

Determine the total dosage: The client is prescribed 10 mcg of exenatide. Calculate the volume per dose: The exenatide solution contains 250 mcg per mL. The nurse needs to administer 10 mcg per dose. To find the volume per dose: 250 mcg / 1 mL = 10 mcg / x mL 250x = 10 Dividing both sides by 250, we get: x = 0.04 mL
