A 15 month old weighing 20lbs needs Streptomycin Sulfate,
which is usually administered to adults as 1000mg as a daily IM
injection. What is the pediatric dosage if it is recommended to
administer 20mg/kg/day (maximum of 1g) of Streptomycin
Sulfate? Correct Answer 181.81mg (rounded: 182mg) per day

1) Convert 20lbs into kg

20mg/kg * 9kg
= 181.81mg
