A prescriber writes a 56 yr old female a prescription for 0.34 L of 50% potassium chloride suspension with a sig: 2t bid. On the shelf you have 86% and 38% KCl susp. How many mL of 86% will be used to concoct the appropriate quantity sufficient for the prescribed suspension? 85ML is the answer but I don’t understand why 😞

Mike, 85mL is the correct answer. I did the question myself to make sure the answer was correct and it was. Please follow the steps in this video (step by step), and you should get the same answer. Hope this answers your question!
