The doctor orders a patient to take Fakelixir (mixturezole difakate) 350 mg PO BID. Based on the total volume amount (AFTER reconstitution), how many doses will this bottle of Fakelixir (mixturezole difakate) provide to the patient?
7 doses
5 doses
20 doses
12 doses
The Correct Answer is C
Total volume (mL) / Dose volume (mL) = Number of doses
First, we need to find the dose volume. Since the strength is 350 mg/5 mL, a single dose of 350 mg would require 5 mL.
Now, we can plug in the values into the formula:
100 mL / 5 mL/dose = 20 doses
