The child is prescribed Acetaminophen 400mg PO q4h for 24 hours for fever. They weigh 60 pounds. Safe dose range: Acetaminophen 10-15 mg/kg/dase PO q4-6h. Available Concentration: 325 mg per 10.15 mLs How many mLs will the nurse administer q4 hours? Round your answer to the nearest tenth

Calculation: Desired dose = 400 mg. Available concentration = 325 mg per 10.15 mL. Calculate the volume to administer in milliliters (mL). Volume (mL) = Desired dose (mg) / (Available amount (mg) / Available volume (mL)) = 400 mg / (325 mg / 10.15 mL) = 400 mg / 32.02 mg/mL = 12.492 mL. Round to the nearest tenth = 12.5 mL.
