Social Sciences - Medical: Health Care
Spanish term or phrase: ml/kg pv
I'm not sure what "pv" means, I think it's "porcentaje masa-volumen", but I'm not sure if that's right or what it is in English.
Google translate think it's "bw", which I would assume is "by weight".
Wikipedia (http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/P/v) says it's "mass concentration", but I'm not sure if that would apply to a medical text.
The text is a marketing description of an anti-biotic and it's properties. MYCOGAL is a product.

Spanish (Spain) > US English


Tras la aplicación de una dosis de 1ml/10 kg pv MYCOGAL 1,05 MUI/ml por vía intramuscular, presenta una rápida absorción, alcanzando la máxima concentración plasmática a las 3 horas y manteniendo niveles plasmáticos hasta los 5 días postaplicación.
