How many capsules , each containing 250mg, are needed to provide 50mg/kg/day for 10 days for a person weighing 176 lbs?

1 answer

176 lbs is the same as 79.83 kg.
The total amount of drug that this soul needs would be (50 mg / kg / day) * (79.83 kg) * (10 days) = 39,915 mg.

With each tablet having 250 mg of drug, the number of tablets the party would need would be 39,915 mg / 250 mg = 42.66 tablets, or rounding up, would be 43 tablets (because you can't technically have a fraction of a tablet).
