   I think it would be better to go with the closer dose of 0.72ml instead don't you?

2. How to give correct dosage of Lovenox

   darajanan replied to darajanan's topic in Student Assist

   refer back to your drug calculation formulas. dose X Volume On Hand dose is 110mg divided by 120 mg on hand times 0.8ml of volume = 0.73ml

3. How to give correct dosage of Lovenox

   sorry, I gave ya'll the wrong amounts. Half asleep. dose was 110 mg and on hand is 120mg/0.8ml. Answer is 0.73ml. My question isn't how to do the calculation, but what would you measure on the syringe. Would you guesstimate between 0.72 and 0.74?

4. How to give correct dosage of Lovenox

   darajanan posted a topic in Student Assist

   Order is for 110mg. On hand is 220mg/0.8ml. I come up with 0.73ml. What is the correct dosage to give since this is a prefilled syringe of Lovenox. Only 3 lines in between each ml so it's hard to calculate 0.73ml. Would I just guessimate at 0.73 ...

   I'm a student myself so I'm curious to know if she will be charged for the placebo.
