Dosage Calc

Remove that niggling doubt. Double check your drug calculations for safety sake!
Dosage Calc is an initiative to assist in the avoidance of drug errors. To do this it provides the following range of calculators for the health care professional to double check his/her own calculations:

Volume of LiquidIV Drop RateNumber of TabletsIV Volume RateFluid Maintenance

Dosage Calc works when your mobile is in "Flight Mode" making it very unlikely to interfeer with any equipment.

Does not work on galaxy 8+ . Shows an exploded view of the screen (one-eighth of the screen). Why not and how can I inform someone and get the application corrected.. I like the functionality of the application but displays in double size only displaying a small portion of the screen making it unusable...

This program works amazingly well. However, I have found that if I input an amount of fluid to infused over a period of time in minutes and do it again over the equivalent hours, the hours version is correct, the minutes version is incorrect, not by much, but it gives a different answer. For example, in the "IV Volume Rate" tab, 250 mL in 90 minutes = 166.3 mL/hour. Then change minutes to hours: 250 mL in 1.5 hours = 166.7 mL/Hr. Regardless of which method is used, the end result should equal 166.7 mL/hour for this amount of fluid over the same period of time. As it is, either way will get you in the ball park, but "hours" will provide the most accurate answer. It's a great app for nursing students, I've used it quite a bit to double-check my calculations. Other programs I've tried require you calculate rate by "Hour" and do not offer you to do the calculations by inputting "minutes." It's just a handy thing when you have an order for something to go in over 110 minutes and you can't figure that to be 1.83 hours... I would expect that to be kind of rare, but... it's possible! Overall, I'm *very* impressed with this calculator! Rounding does affect output to whole mg amounts.

But extremely slow and difficult to use... not good for paramedics. Also it needs mcg/kg body weight calculations

Used to be an AMAZING app, but after I switched to galaxy 8 it failed me. Can't minimize it. Sad

This used to be a great app but now I am unable to use it. It cannot be minimized. It shows up too big to use and cannot find the settings to make it smaller

Great in theory. Sadly it is not accurate, especially with lower body weights and lower doses.

A. G. u. Sep 9, 2011     

I take back my initial comment. Can't do mcg/kg/min, and it is inaccurate

I can not use it now. It is too big on my galaxy s 7 edge screen.

Its very useful mean to prevent the error during dose calculating very simple & accurate specially for nursing students!

Jam. B. Oct 3, 2017     

Please fix. Screen is so zoomed in can't use. Tryed on multiple phones. Co-workers loved this app but now can't use.

I'm a nursing student who need to take med math calculation every quarter, your app is a great tool for practicing and checking your calculations. Thank you for your thoughtful act, in creating this app. Job well done!! :-)

Neat idea, and the calculator works, but what hospital doesn't use decimals? Add the decimal and you'll be in much better shape to get great ratings.

A. G. u. Jul 6, 2011     

When opened there is nothing but a white screen and scroll bars.

Luc. M. Oct 16, 2014     

There's not a . Decimal and I should be able to choose ml,g,mcl,l etc. Great idea but doesn't work.

A. G. u. Sep 4, 2011

Still learning to work it

Obe. N. Sep 6, 2015     

Useless app. No decimal point. I can't calculate doses (strengths such as 0.5mg or 1.5g and 0.1ml )

A. G. u. Aug 5, 2011     

Great app if you are a nursing student....
