Bepotastine besilate (BEPREVE) ophthalmic solution contains 1.5% w/v of the therapeutic agent. Express this concentration in mg/mL.

15mg/ml

Step-by-step explanation:

Percent mass per volume ( % m/v) is unit expression that tells us how many grams of a solute that we can find 100 ml of a particular solution.

In the above question, we are asked to express 1.5%w/v Bepotastine besilate (BEPREVE) ophthalmic solution as mg/mL

Step 1

1.5% w/v = 1.5 g of Bepotastine besilate (BEPREVE) in 100ml ophthalmic solution

Hence, if

100ml = 1.5g

1 ml = y g

We Cross Multiply

100ml × yg = 1 ml × 1.5g

yg = 1 ml × 1.5g/100ml

= 0.015g

Therefore, in 1 ml we have 0.15 g.

Step 2

Since we are asked to express as mg/ml

We convert 0.015g to mg

1 gram = 1000 milligrams

0.015 grams =

Cross Multiply

0.015grams × 1000 milligrams/ 1 gram

= 15 mg

Therefore, the concentration in mg/ml of 15% m/v of Bepotastine besilate (BEPREVE) ophthalmic solution is 15mg/ml
