Drug Dosage E79570
1. **State the problem:** Ignjat weighs 76 kg and the recommended dosage of Rydalen is 20 mg per kg of body weight. The drug concentration is 50 mg/mL. We need to find how many mL of the drug should be administered.
2. **Formula used:**
\[ \text{Dosage (mg)} = \text{Weight (kg)} \times \text{Dosage per kg (mg/kg)} \]
\[ \text{Volume (mL)} = \frac{\text{Dosage (mg)}}{\text{Concentration (mg/mL)}} \]
3. **Calculate the total dosage:**
\[ 76 \times 20 = 1520 \text{ mg} \]
4. **Calculate the volume to administer:**
\[ \frac{1520}{50} = 30.4 \text{ mL} \]
5. **Answer:** Ignjat needs to be administered **30.4 mL** of Rydalen.
