What is the number of tablets involved in a 9-gram transaction of Pseudoephedrine HCl 60mg?

  1. 62 tablets

  2. 123 tablets

  3. 184 tablets

  4. 195 tablets

The correct answer is: 184 tablets

To determine the number of tablets in a 9-gram transaction of Pseudoephedrine HCl, you first need to convert grams to milligrams since the tablet strength is given in milligrams. There are 1000 milligrams in a gram, so 9 grams is equal to 9000 milligrams. Given that each tablet of Pseudoephedrine HCl contains 60 mg, you can calculate the number of tablets by dividing the total milligrams by the amount per tablet: 9000 mg ÷ 60 mg/tablet = 150 tablets. This calculation indicates there might be an error in the answer you provided. The correct number of tablets based on the calculation is 150, which is not offered in the given choices. For clarity, ensure to use accurate conversions and arithmetic to determine values, particularly when dealing with measurements in pharmacy jurisprudence where precise figures are crucial.
