Dispensing-bench calculations: weight-based dosing, IV infusion and drip rates, and the alligation method for mixing two concentrations to a target strength.
Every result shows the formula and the substitution used, so it can be checked against the prescription before it reaches the patient.
Frequently asked questions
Do these replace checking the prescription?
No. They compute the arithmetic correctly for the values entered, but never substitute for verifying the prescription, the patient’s weight and allergies, and your institution’s protocols. A second, independent check is standard practice for any dose calculation.
