2) 1.4cc of ½% tetracaine (Pontocaine) was given in a subarachoid block. How many mg were given? Answer: First convert ½% to mg/cc. A 0.5% solution is the same as 500mg/100cc (5mg/cc). Now you have all the information needed to use the mL/hr to dose/hr calculator. 1.4 cc = mL given, 5mg = dose available, and 1cc = mL available.

- 2 tablet or greater than 3 tablets are not common, but. Convert 1.5 g into mg. 1.5 g x 1000 mg/g = 1500 mg. Atenolol 0.05 g capsules are supplied.
- Say the dosage strength is 200 mg and there are 100 tablets in the bottle. If the doctor orders 0.4 g, how many tablets will you give? Before you use the formula above, all units should be the same. Thus, convert 200 mg to g.

Examples
1) Prepare a 1% solution of Brevital (500 mg of powder in bottle). How many mL of sterile water will you use?
Answer: First convert 1% solution to mg/cc. A 1% solution is thesame as 1000 milligrams in 100 cc or 10mg/cc.
Percent solutions all are 1000mg/100cc. For example a 2%= 20mg/cc, 5% = 50mg/cc, 5.5% = 55mg/cc, etc.. Backgrounds 7 4th of july.
Now you have all the information needed to use the IV dosage calculator. This problem is the same as the doctor ordering a 500 mg IVbag of Brevital: 500 mg = dose ordered, 10mg = dose available, and 1cc =mL available (the last two values come from 10mg/cc obtained above). The answeris 50cc.
2) 1.4cc of ½% tetracaine (Pontocaine) was given in a subarachoidblock. How many mg were given?
Answer: First convert ½% to mg/cc. A 0.5% solution is the same as 500mg/100cc (5mg/cc).
Now you have all the information needed to use the mL/hr to dose/hr calculator. 1.4 cc = mL given, 5mg = dose available, and 1cc = mL available. So 7mg of tetracaine were given.
Epinephrine Solutions
Epinephrine vials are also labeled by concentration of a ratio of medicationper mL. For example, a solution may be labeled as 1:100,000. Thisconcentrationrepresents 1000mg/100,000mL or 0.01mg/mL. Here are some others:

| CONCENTRATION | DOSAGE EQUIVALENCE | PERCENT |
| 1:1,000 | 1mg/mL | 0.1% |
| 1:10,000 | 0.1mg/mL | 0.01% |
| 1:100,000 | 0.01mg/mL | 0.001% |
| 1:200,000 | 0.005mg/mL | 0.0005% |
Example
How many mg of epinephrine are in 5cc of a 1:10,000 solution?
Answer: First convert 1:10,000 into mg/cc.
1:10,000 = 1000mg/10,000cc = 0.1mg/cc
Next use the IV dose given calculator. 5cc = mL given, 0.1mg = dosage available, and 1cc = mL available. The answer is 0.5 mg of epinephrine were given.
