Question

When you don’t seem to get any better, you eventually end up in the hospital. The
doctor orders 120 mg of medicine to be given twice a day. The nurse comes in with 6
tablets and tells you that there are 30 mg in each tablet. Is this the correct dosage? If
not, how many tablets should you get?

6 tablet of 30 mg is not correct dosage

 

The doctor orders 120 mg of medicine to be given twice a day.

 

there are 30 mg in each tablet

 

120/30 =4
