To determine the number of tablets to be administered per dose, we need to find the equivalent dose of 15 mg of flurazepam. Since each tablet contains 30 mg of flurazepam, we divide 15 mg by 30 mg:
15 mg / 30 mg = 0.5 tablets
Therefore, 0.5 tablets will be administered per dose.
The order reads: Aurazapam 15 mg po at bedtime as needed for sleep. The PIXIS (medication dispensing system) drawer
contains flurazepam 30 mg / tablet. How many tablets will be administered per dose? Show all work
