Can somebody please help me. I have all my pt info for my clinicals in the morning but I having some difficulty understanding how I have to infuse Bactrim. The dose that the pt is getting is ..... 80-16mg/mL 160 MG IV Q6H. I looked it up in my IV med book and I think what I undertsand is that I need to infuse this for every 80 mg at a rate of between 60-90 minutes . I have only 4 clinicals days left to understand piggybacks so I picked a pt with multiple IV meds and this is the one that I am stumped on. Any help would be great.
Thank you
laura
