A physician orders penicillin 525,000 units q4h for

a child who weighs 55 lbs. The recommended dosage is 100,000 – 250,000 units/kg/day in six divided doses. The pharmacy stocks the 200,000 units/mL concentration.

What is the child’s weight in kg? I got 24.95 kg so 25kg

What is the safe daily dosage range for this child? And I got  12.5mL – 31.2mL

Is the ordered dose safe? I am stumped on this question. I asked another tutor and they came up with different answers then mine on the first two questions.. and I am still not sure about this one.
