The healthcare provider prescribes interferon beta-1b 0.1875 mg every other day for a client with multiple sclerosis. The nurse reconstitutes the single-use vial of powder labeled 0.3 mg with 1.2 mL of sterile water. How many ml should the nurse administer to the client? (Enter the numerical value only. If rounding is required round to the nearest hundredth)

The healthcare provider prescribes interferon beta-1b 0.1875 mg every other day for a client with multiple sclerosis. The nurse reconstitutes the single-use vial of powder labeled 0.3 mg with 1.2 mL of sterile water, so the concentration of interferon beta-1b in the solution is 0.25 mg/mL (0.3 mg / 1.2 mL). Since the healthcare provider prescribes 0.1875 mg of interferon beta-1b, the nurse should administer 0.75 mL of medication (0.1875 mg / 0.25 mg/mL).
