Demerol (meperidine) is an opioid analgesic used for pain relief. If a patient is prescribed 50 mg instead of 75 mg, it may indicate a need for lower dosing due to factors like increased sensitivity, potential side effects, or a doctor's decision to minimize opioid exposure. The adjustment can help manage pain effectively while reducing the risk of adverse effects or dependency. Always consult a healthcare professional for personalized medical advice.
I am a pharmacist. 7.5 mL (1.5 teaspoonfuls) of 50 mg per mL Demerol syrup will contain 75 mg. It is a simply and straightforward calculation, but if it helps, you can think of 50 mg per 5 mL as being 10 mg per mL. Therefore, 7.5 mL of the syrup contains 75 mg.
Morphine and Demerol (meperidine) are both opioid analgesics, but their potency differs. Generally, morphine is considered stronger on a milligram-to-milligram basis. Specifically, 4 mg of morphine is approximately equivalent to 50-75 mg of Demerol, making morphine significantly more potent. Therefore, 4 mg of morphine is indeed stronger than 50 mg of Demerol.
We need to know the concentration of how many mg per ml.
100 mg Demerol go for $25-$30 US dollars.
.75 kg = 750000 mg.75 kg = 750000 mg.75 kg = 750000 mg.75 kg = 750000 mg.75 kg = 750000 mg.75 kg = 750000 mg
on the street, about $20 a piece for pills
The question can't be answered with the information given. "100 ml" is a volume, not a concentration.
75 mg = .075 g.
75mg equals 75000mcg (1000mcg per mg).
7.5 mL per 75 mg which is 10 mg per mL
3 days .. Its an opioid. They say 2-3 days but I'd give it 3 for sure.
50 kg is 50,000,000 mg
