  1. Identify the dosage per administration.

    The prescription states "Tab Cabergoline 0.5mg".
    The dosage per tablet is 0.5 mg0.5 \, \text{mg}.

  2. Determine the frequency of administration.

    The prescription indicates "weekly", meaning one dose per week.

  3. Identify the total duration of the prescription.

    The prescription is "for 4 weeks".

  4. Calculate the total number of doses over the duration.

    Since the medication is taken once weekly for 4 weeks, the total number of doses is:

    Total doses=1 doseweek×4 weeks=4 doses\text{Total doses} = 1 \, \frac{\text{dose}}{\text{week}} \times 4 \, \text{weeks} = 4 \, \text{doses}

  5. Calculate the total amount of medication prescribed.

    Multiply the dosage per dose by the total number of doses:

    Total amount=0.5 mgdose×4 doses=2.0 mg\text{Total amount} = 0.5 \, \frac{\text{mg}}{\text{dose}} \times 4 \, \text{doses} = 2.0 \, \text{mg}
