I have a project due on a case study for pyometra. The surgical record obtained states the clinic used "kitty magic" for an OHE. It is stated as a standard on all forms as "Medetomidine/Ketamine/Butorphanol (O.3 mg/ml, 50 mg/ml, 2 mg/ml) Hand written in, they used 0.40 ml IV. I need to know the dose of each which was actually given (assuming these are the concentrations of each drug). The cat weighs 8 lbs 8 oz. Is this type of cocktail made up ahead of time?

Can you multiply each concentration by 0.4ml to get each mg dose?

If the Student Doctor Forum is not for homework help, where can I go to get the help I need?
 
Set it up the way you need You have X mg/ml times however many ml and the ml cancel and you get mgs
