Calculating IV Solution Concentration

 Example 2 500 ml of IV fluid contains 0.02 mg of morphine sulfate

per ml. The solution was prepared by adding morphine to dextrose 5%

in water. How many mg of morphine are contained in the solution?

To find the total milligrams in the solution:

Step 1 – Write down the volume of the solution

Step 2 – Write down the strength of the solution

Step 3 - Reduce the units

Step 4 – Perform the math

500 ml

Step 1 Step 2

500 x 0.02 mg

0.02 mg

1 ml

Step 4

1 x 1

Step 3

x = 100 mg
