    Calculation

    A nurse is preparing to administer pantoprazole 7 mg PO to an infant. The amount available is pantoprazole 2 mg/mL. How many mL should the nurse administer? (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: Dose of pantoprazole: 7 mg Concentration of pantoprazole: 2 mg/mL Calculate the volume of pantoprazole to be administered: Volume = Dose (mg) / Concentration (mg/mL) Substitute the values: Volume = 7 mg / 2 mg/mL Calculate the result: Volume = 3.5 mL
