Thanks for the input Wuzzie. Appreciate it!

A is the answer, but I'm starting to think Pearson (this is a question from Pearson's online math review) perhaps is incorrect. Please let me know what you get. Thanks!

The BSA is 2.16, meaning the dose is 3.24mg On hand is 4mg/4mL So...Desired/Have on hand * Quantity would be 3.24mg/4mg * 4mL = 3.24mL Here is where I get stuck. I add 3.24 mL to the 50mL D5W to get a total volume of 53.24mL to infuse over 90 min. So 53.24mL/90 min * 60 min/1 hr = 35.49 mL/hr. But that's not the answer, so I'm missing something...

Can't solve this for the life of me. Assistance required please Order: Hycamtin (topotecan HCl) 1.5 mg/m2 IV daily for 5 days, repeat every 21 days. The label on the vial reads 4 mg and the manufacturer's directions states "Reconstitute each vial with 4 mL of sterile water. Withdraw the dose and further dilute in 50 mL D5W and infuse over 90 minutes." Calculate the rate of flow in milliliters per hour for a client who weighs 92 kg and is 183 cm tall. A. 29.6 mL/h B. 87.5 mL/h C. 114 mL/h D. 100 mL/h
