A certain drug "X" contain 100mg/5ml of drug cefexime. If the patient takes one teaspoonful of the suspension three time daily for five day. How many grams of the drug does the patient consume?

Answer 1

One teaspoonful is equivalent to 5 ml of the drug.

The patient takes 5 ml three times daily for five days.

5 ml x 3 times = 15 ml daily.

15 ml x 5 days = 75 ml.

To convert ml to grams, we need to know the density of the drug. Assuming the density is 1 g/ml, then the patient consumes 75 grams of the drug.
