Question

A patient is prescribed 80 mg of Tramadol Hydrochloride injection. The stock dose is 50mg / 2 mL. What volume will you require?

Answer 1

50mg/2ml, or 25mg/1ml, so 80mg/25mg=3.2ml is the volume required

Answer 2

Answer : The volume require will be, 3.2 mL

Explanation :

As we are given that the stock dose is 50 mg per 2 mL.

Now we have to determine the amount of volume require.

As, 50 mg of Tramadol Hydrochloride injection require volume = 2 mL

So, 80 mg of Tramadol Hydrochloride injection require volume =
`(50mg)/(20mg)* 2mL=3.2mL`

Therefore, the volume require will be, 3.2 mL
