The answer is 18.75 ml.
15ml/80mgX 100mg/1= 1500/80=18.75ml

80 mg is available in 15 ml
100 mg would be available in 15 x 100 / 80 = 75/ 4 = 18.75 ml
So the client should receive 18.75 ml per dose

Simple formula for drug dosages: desired dose divided by dose you have multiplied by dose form (for lack of better term). So you would have: 100(mg)/80(mg)x15(ml)=18.75 ml

Take 30 ml or two doses of syrup of 15 ml each . It becomes 160 mg/30ml. Add 10 ml of pure water to 30 ml of syrup. This mixture is 40 ml for 160mg.
25 ml of this mixture is 100mgs of drug
