Weight-Based Dose Calculator (mg/kg & mg/kg/day)
Calculates single dose (mg) and total daily dose (mg/day) from patient body weight (kg) and prescribed mg/kg regimen.
Every calculator includes validated mathematical equations, explicit unit labels, physiological boundary checks, worked examples, rounding rules, and clinical disclaimers.
Calculates single dose (mg) and total daily dose (mg/day) from patient body weight (kg) and prescribed mg/kg regimen.
Calculates patient Body Surface Area (Mosteller m²) and required drug dose (mg) for mg/m² regimens.
Divides a total daily mg/kg/day or fixed mg/day regimen into individual scheduled doses by dosing interval (q24h, q12h, q8h, q6h).
Calculates tablets per dose and total tablets to dispense for a complete treatment course.
Calculates total volume (mL) and number of bottles/packs needed for a multi-day oral liquid or multidose regimen.
Calculates paediatric single and daily dose (mg) with automatic adult-ceiling safety capping.
Converts a weight-based paediatric mg dose into exact mL of oral suspension based on bottle concentration (mg per 5 mL).
Estimates paediatric dose from adult dose using weight in pounds (lb) or kg for academic/GPAT examination preparation.
Estimates paediatric dose for children aged 1–12 years using age in years for academic/GPAT examination preparation.
Estimates infant dose (<24 months) from age in months and adult dose for academic/GPAT examination preparation.
Calculates concentration in mg/mL and mg/5 mL from total solute mass (mg) and total solution volume (mL).
Calculates exact volume (mL) to withdraw or administer from a liquid or injectable stock solution.
Calculates exact diluent volume (mL) to add when reconstituting a dry powder vial accounting for powder displacement volume.
Calculates volume of concentrated stock (V₁) and volume of diluent needed to prepare a diluted solution of target concentration (C₂) and volume (V₂).
Calculates exact draw-up volume (mL) and number of single-use ampoules/vials required per dose.
Calculates infusion pump rate in mL/hr from total infusion volume (mL) and duration (hours or minutes).
Calculates gravity IV drip rate in drops/minute (gtt/min) using macrodrip (15 or 20 gtt/mL) or microdrip (60 gtt/mL) sets.
Calculates infusion pump rate (mL/hr) for vasopressors/inotropes ordered in mcg/kg/min.
Calculates total infusion duration (hours & minutes) and drug delivery rate (mg/min) to verify safe administration ceilings (e.g., Phenytoin ≤50 mg/min, Vancomycin ≥60 min).
Calculates solute mass/volume required for a given percentage strength (% w/v, % v/v, or % w/w) and resulting percentage.
Converts ratio strength (1:N, e.g., Adrenaline 1:1000 or 1:10,000, KMnO4 1:5000) into % w/v, mg/mL, and mcg/mL.
Calculates exact volumes/weights of a higher-strength (CH) and lower-strength (CL) preparation needed to compound a desired intermediate strength (CD).
Calculates grams of Sodium Chloride (NaCl) required to render an ophthalmic, nasal, or parenteral drug solution isotonic with blood/tears (0.9% w/v NaCl).
Converts electrolyte mass (mg) into mmol, mEq, and theoretical mOsm using molecular weight, valence, and dissociation count.
Calculates BMI (kg/m²) and classifies nutritional/metabolic status under both WHO international and Asian-Indian consensus thresholds.
Calculates patient Body Surface Area (m²) using both Mosteller and Du Bois equations for clinical dosing and renal indexing.
Calculates Ideal Body Weight (IBW) and 40%-corrected Adjusted Body Weight (AdjBW) for hydrophilic drug dosing (e.g., aminoglycosides) in obesity.
Estimates Creatinine Clearance (CrCl in mL/min) for renal drug dose adjustment across adult patients.
Calculates albumin-corrected total serum calcium (mg/dL) and albumin-corrected phenytoin concentration (mcg/mL) in hypoalbuminaemia.
Converts a drug mass in milligrams (mg) simultaneously into grams (g), micrograms (mcg), and nanograms (ng) to prevent 1000-fold decimal errors.
Converts liquid volume in millilitres (mL) into litres (L), microlitres (μL), standard 5 mL metric teaspoons, and 15 mL tablespoons.
Converts percentage concentration (% w/v) simultaneously into mg/mL, mcg/mL, ratio strength (1:N), and parts per million (ppm).
