Answer:
0.0192 mL per min.
Explanation:
IV rate = 36 mg per 30 min.
IV concentration = 125 mg per 2.0 mL
36 mg per 30 min. IV rate = 36/30 = 1.2 mg per min
If 125 mg methylprednisolone is present in 2.0 mL of the IV nag, how many mL would contain 1.2 mg?
= 2x1.2/125
= 0.0192 mL
Therefore, the flow rate of the IV must be 0.0192 mL per min. in order to be able to deliver 36 mg per 30 min.
