Calculation
The healthcare provider has ordered 500 mg of ampicillin. The vial is a 1 g vial, and after reconstitution, the label reads 1 g/5 mL. How many mL will you administer? Do not provide the unit of measurement. Only provide the number. Round to one decimal place (tenths).
mL
Explanation & Rationale
Step 1: Available concentration = 1 g/5 mL = 1000 mg/5 mL = 200 mg/mL Step 2: Ordered dose = 500 mg Step 3: Volume to administer = 500 ÷ 200 = 2.5 Final Answer: 2.5
