Question

use the following drug label to answer the question.
ndc 0025 - 6589 - 82
heparin sodium
injection, usp
10,000 units/ml
derived from porcine intestinal mucosa
for intravenous for subcutaneous use
10 ml
multiple dose vial
rx only
the dosage given will be (square)ml.

Explanation:

Step1: Identify the given values

The concentration of heparin sodium is \(10,000\) units/mL. Let the volume to be administered be \(V\) mL. The ordered dose is \(200\) units.
We use the formula \(V=\frac{\text{Dose ordered}}{\text{Concentration}}\).

Step2: Substitute the values into the formula

Substitute the values: \(V = \frac{200\space\text{units}}{10000\space\text{units/mL}}\).

Step3: Calculate the volume

\(V=\frac{200}{10000}= 0.02\space\text{mL}\).

Answer:

\(0.02\)
