Haha, I bet the FDA would have a field day if the label showed 'mL per dose' instead of the actual strength. That's a recipe for disaster!

Well, if the question is about the FDA, then C is the way to go. The strength per mL is the key information they want highlighted.

Hmm, this is tricky. I was leaning towards B, but now I'm not so sure. The FDA guidelines must be followed precisely.

I think the correct answer is C. The strength per mL should be clearly displayed, not hidden in parentheses.
