A nurse preparing to administer morphine 7.5 mg subcutaneous. Available is morphine injection 10 mg/mL. How many mL should the nurse administer? (Round the answer to the nearest hundredth. Use a leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero.)

Determine the total daily dosage: The client is prescribed 7.5 mg of morphine. Calculate the dosage per dose: The medication is to be administered in a single dose. Dosage per dose is 7.5 mg. Determine the volume per dose: The morphine injection contains 10 mg per mL. The nurse needs to administer 7.5 mg per dose. Divide 7.5 mg / 10 mg per mL = 0.75 mL per dose.
