Question

1. the physician orders benadryl 25 mg iv stat for your patient with a mild medication reaction. how many milliliters will you prepare? (round to the hundredth if necessary.) using the syringe below, draw the correct volume to administer the dose.

Explanation:

Step1: Identify the concentration

The concentration of Benadryl is \(50\) mg per mL.

Step2: Use the formula \(V=\frac{D}{C}\)

Where \(D = 25\) mg (desired dose) and \(C = 50\) mg/mL (concentration). So \(V=\frac{25}{50}\)

Step3: Calculate the value

\(\frac{25}{50}=0.5\) mL

Answer:

\(0.5\) mL
