A doctor orders 200 mg of Rocephin to be taken by a 55 lb child every 8
hours. The medication label shows that 75-150 mg/kg per day is the
appropriate dosage range. What are the two ranges for the mg/kg per lb?

HURRY PLEASE :((

Answer :

Answer:

7k and 1050mg

Explanation:

Convert 15.4 lb to kg.

lb → kg    ( ÷ by 2.2 )

15.4 lb ÷ 2.2 = 7 kg

7 kg * 75 mg/kg  =  525 mg (Minimum Desired Dosage)

7 kg * 150 mg/kg  =  1,050 mg (Maximum Desired Dosage)
