500ug per tablet i assume. There are 1000 micrograms in a milligram. Therefore 0.25 milligrams is 250 micrograms. If there are 500ug per tablet, and you want 250ug, you give them 0.5 tablets. Please learn to do this ASAP before you are trusted to administer medication, as answers you get may not always be as correct as this. Also, this kind of thing could really cause patients unknowing distress.

I would write a proportion and solve it, for example, 2.5 / 10 = 12.0 / x Give the patient 48 mL and call me in the morning. In the meantime, develop the work on your own. You can use this conclusion as a check, to determine whether your work is correct.
