The vials are necessary for the entire treatment is 70 vials

We have to first calculate the total number of antibiotics taken by the patient in two weeks, then find the total vials neccessary for the entire treatment.

The total antibiotics for a period of two weeks = (100 mg/day)(2 weeks)

Total = 100 mg/day×14 days

Total = 1400 mg for two weeks.

If the antibiotics contain vials in 20 mg/vials of the drugs,
