Example: 2.5g Doctor order 750 mg/ tablet drug available. How many tablets to give?
.025mg Doctors orders 50 mcg/ tablet drug available. How many tablets to give?
100 mg Doctor ordered 200mg/tsp. drug available. How many ML to give?
0.65g Doctors orders 225 mg/ Tablet drug available. How many tablets you give?
Those are some of the questions I am getting, I just cant figure out how to come out with the correct answer. I will appreciated if any one can teach me an easy way in how to resolve this calculations or any others.

Nursechick is right. Never forget, you are the last line of defense for your patient. It is your responsibility to catch everyone elses mistakes before they make it to your patient and speak up to prevent them from happening. Good nurses always advocate for their patients, even if it means calling out someone elses mistakes.
