Textbook Question
Chapter 1, Problem 85CP
Often the specific amount of a drug to be administered must be calculated from a given dose in mg per kilogram of body weight. This ensures that individuals who have very different body mass get the proper dose. If the proper dosage of a drug is 2.0 mg/kg of body weight, how many milligrams would a 110-lb individual need?

Assume a certain adult requires 274 mL of pure oxygen per minute and assume inhaled air contains
20.0 percent oxygen by volume and exhaled air is 16.0 percent. (Also, assume that the volume of inhaled
air is equal to that of the exhaled air.) If the person breathes 12.0 times every minute, what is the
volume of air per breath?
mL
The recommended adult dose of Elixophyllin, a drug used to treat asthma, is 6.0mg/kg of body mass. Calculate the dose in milligrams for a 115-lb person. 1 lb= 453.59 g.
