1 D/H*Q=X
Desired dose=Ordered dose amount/Amount on Hand *Quantity
Dose ordered=0.3mg
Dose on Hand=0.4mg
Quantity=1ml
0.3mg/0.4mg*1ml=0.75ml=0.8ml
2 D/H*Q=X
Dose ordered=1000mg ,convert it to g which is equal to 1g
Dose on Hand=0.5g
Quantity=2.2ml
1g/0.5g*2.2ml=4.4ml
3 Dose ordered=0.03g
Dose on hand=20mg=0.02g
Quantity=2ml
X=D/H*Q
0.03g/0.02g*2=3.0ml
4 X=D//H*Q
DOse ordered=15mg
Dose on hand=10mg
Quantity=1ml
15/10*1=1.5ml
5. 1Tab Dilaudid=15mg
3 tab=15*3=45mg.
6 . 1 tab=15mg
2 tab=15*2=30mg
7. Dose ordered=15mg
Dose on hand=10mg
Quantity=5ml
X=D/H*Q
15/10*5=7.5ml
