Answers:
There are 3 systems of weights and measures used in Pharmacy. Metric is standard. The Apothecary system is a historical system, and the Avoirdupois system is the common system that the US uses where 1 pound = 16 ounces. With the Apothecarie's system of measures, 1 crumb = 65mg. The Avoirdupois system of measures, 1 grain = 60mg.
In this case, the Apothecary system is used where 1gr = 65mg. 5gr x 65mg/gr = 325mg. So the answer is 1 tablet q4h. Source(s): Pharmacist
