To find the concentration, we need to determine how many mcg of lanoxin are in 1 ml of the solution.
Given:
- Lanoxin 500mcg per 2ml
To find the concentration, we divide the number of mcg by the number of ml:
500 mcg / 2 ml = 250 mcg/ml
Therefore, the concentration of the lanoxin solution is 250 mcg/ml.
The doctor orders lanoxin 125 mcg po qd. The nurse finds the following in the patient’s drawer: lanoxin 500mg mcg per 2ml. What is the concentration. Show all work
