Calculadora de Dosagem Pediatrica — Formula

Weight-Based Pediatric Dosing

Single Dose = Weight (kg) x Dose (mg/kg)

Daily Dose = Single Dose x Doses per Day

Pediatric medications are typically dosed based on body weight because children's bodies process drugs differently than adults. Always verify doses with a pharmacist or prescribing reference.

Exemplo Resolvido

A 25 kg child prescribed 10 mg/kg three times daily.

  1. Single dose = 25 x 10 = 250 mg
  2. Daily total = 250 x 3 = 750 mg/day
  3. Verify: 750 / 25 = 30 mg/kg/day
