Using an infusion rate table
An infusion rate table, as exemplified by Table 13.2, may accompany a
commercial product to facilitate dosing. The composition of the example
table is based on the concentration of the infusion solution to be used, the
desired dose of the drug, and the patient’s weight. Other tables may be
designed differently; for example, rather than the patient’s weight, the
patient’s body surface area, in square meters, may be used. In each case,
however, the table provides guidelines for the delivery rate of an infusion.
Table 13.2 is used by matching the column of the desired drug delivery rate
against the patient’s weight to yield the infusion delivery rate in mL/h.
TABLE 13.2 INFUSION RATE OF A HYPOTHETICAL
DRUG FOR A CONCENTRATION OF 0.2 mg/mL
1. Using Table 13.2, determine the delivery rate, in mL/h, for a drug to be
administered at 10 mcg/kg/min to a patient weighing 65 kg.
2. If the infusion pump used in the previous example delivers 60
microdrops/milliliter, how many microdrops would be administered to
the patient per minute?
3. Calculate the entry shown in Table 13.2 for the infusion delivery rate as
determined in the first example problem (i.e., 195 mL/h).
A different type of flow rate table is shown in Table 13.3. This type of table
is used for determining flow rates for different doses when using a specific
drug concentration. The data in the table are calculated as by the following
illustration:
TABLE 13.3 EXAMPLE OF A FLOW RATE TABLE FOR
AN INFUSION CONTAINING DRUG IN A
CONCENTRATION OF 200 μg/mL
a
a
After finding the desired dose in μg/min in the top column, the rate of flow
in mL/h is found by the number below. The table may be extrapolated; for
example, a dose of 80 μg/min would translate into a rate of 24 mL/h. Also,
the table may be changed for a different drug concentration; for example, a
drug concentration of 100 μg/mL and a dose of 5 μg/min would necessitate
a flow rate of 3 mL/h.
1. Use Table 13.3 to determine the infusion administration rate, in mL/h, to
deliver drug at 16 μg/min.
For 8 μg/min, the rate is 2.4 mL/h
Thus, for 16 μg/min, the rate would be double or 4.8 mL/h
Proof: The infusion contains 200 μg/mL

Or, note from the table that the rate in mL/h for each dose may be
determined by multiplying by the factor 0.3. Thus, 16 μg/min × 0.3 = 4.8
mL/h

Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) infusion
calculations
Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) are used in the diagnosis and treatment of
various diseases. In general, mAbs are dosed on the basis of body weight or
body surface area and are administered by injection or infusion. Table 13.4
presents some examples of mAb infusions.

ANTIBODIES (mAbs) ADMINISTERED BY
INTRAVENOUS INFUSION

Stated usual doses/rates are for illustration; actual clinical doses/rates are
determined based on individual patient parameters.
1. In preparing an infusion of the drug trastuzumab, a pharmacist adds 20
mL of bacteriostatic water for injection to a vial containing 420 mg of
the mAb. The resulting solution contains trastuzumab, 21 mg/mL.
Using the information from Table 13.4, (a) calculate the milliliters of
solution required for the loading dose for a 165-lb patient. The
pharmacist then transfers the calculated volume into an infusion bag
containing 250 mL of sodium chloride injection. Calculate (b) the
quantity of trastuzumab administered in mg/min and (c) the drip rate,
in drops/minute, using an administration set that delivers 20 drops/mL.
a. Weight of patient: 165 lb × 1 kg/2.2 lb = 75 kg
Loading dose in mg: 75 kg × 4 mg/kg = 300 mg
