A nurse is preparing to administer 750,000 units of procaine penicillin GIM. Available is procaine penicillin G injection 600,000 units/ml. How many m should the nurse administer? (Round the answer to the nearest tenth. Use a leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero.)
The Correct Answer is ["1.3"]
Desired dose = 750,000 units
Available concentration = 600,000 units/mL
Volume to administer = Desired dose / Concentration = 750,000 units / 600,000 units/mL = 1.25 mL
Rounded to the nearest tenth = 1.3 mL
