Dose age calculations

Question

Your doctor has ordered 0.9 g of medication for your patience. You have 500 MG on hand what is the correct dose of medication to be administered to your patient?

Answer 1

The correct dose of medication to administer to your patient is 0.9 g, or 900 mg.

As this question does not state the medication form (i.e., tablet, liquid), my best answer would be to determine an equivalent dosage form and administer that. For instance, if 300 mg tablets were available, the correct dose would be 3 300 mg tablets. If the medication was concentrated at 100 mg per 1 ml, the correct dose would be 9 ml.
