If an order states to administer 600 mg ibuprofen, how many 200 mg tablets will be administered?

1 tablet

5 tablets

3 tablets

To determine how many 200 mg ibuprofen tablets are needed to achieve a total dose of 600 mg, you can divide the total dose by the strength of one tablet.

The equation is:

600 mg total dose ÷ 200 mg per tablet = 3 tablets.

This calculation shows that to reach the total of 600 mg, you would need to administer three 200 mg tablets. This understanding of medication dosage and conversions is crucial in nursing practice to ensure safe and effective patient care.
