Solution Steps

Step 1: Calculate the total daily dose

The prescribed dose is 6 mg/kg/day. The patient's weight is 16.5 kg. Total daily dose = 6 mg/kg/day * 16.5 kg = 99 mg/day

Step 2: Calculate the dose per administration

The medication is divided TID (three times a day). Dose per administration = 99 mg/day / 3 = 33 mg/dose

Step 3: Calculate the volume to be administered

The medication concentration is 15 mg/mL. Volume per dose = 33 mg/dose / (15 mg/mL) = 2.2 mL/dose

Final Answer

2.2 mL
