An infant's medication reads: 2 teaspoons = 250 mg. How many mL are drawn into a syringe for 250 mg?

To determine how many milliliters correspond to 250 mg of medication when given as 2 teaspoons equaling 250 mg, it's essential to first understand the conversion of teaspoons to milliliters.

One teaspoon is equivalent to approximately 5 mL. So, if 2 teaspoons equal 250 mg, you can convert teaspoons to milliliters:

2 teaspoons x 5 mL/teaspoon = 10 mL.

Thus, for the dose of 250 mg, you would need to draw 10 mL into a syringe. This makes 10 mL the correct response, providing a direct conversion from teaspoons to mL based on the concentration given.
