About this calculator
The Medication Dosage Calculator is a browser-based tool that helps you estimate a weight-based dose. You enter your patient weight and dose, and it applies weight-based dosing to return an estimated dose — a guide, not a prescription. Everything runs locally — no sign-up, no uploads, nothing stored — so it stays fast and private.
It is not a prescribing tool. It does not know the drug, the maximum dose, the indication, the patient’s age or organ function, or the product concentration. Every real dose must be confirmed against an official source and a qualified professional.
How to use
- Enter the patient’s weight in kilograms.
- Enter the dose in milligrams per kilogram.
- Press Calculate to see the arithmetic result in mg.
- Verify every dose with a pharmacist or doctor.

Technical notes

These are general-population estimates and not a substitute for advice from a qualified clinician.
Results are rounded for display; the underlying calculation keeps full precision.
FAQ
Why is this not a prescribing tool?
It only multiplies weight by a mg/kg figure. It ignores maximum doses, drug choice, age, kidney and liver function, and concentration — all of which a real prescription requires.
What does mg/kg mean?
It is a dose expressed per kilogram of body weight, so the total dose is the mg/kg value multiplied by the patient’s weight in kilograms.
Can I use this to give someone medicine?
No. Never dose medication from this output. Confirm the correct dose, maximum, and formulation with a pharmacist, doctor, or official drug label.
Does the Medication Dosage Calculator send my data to a server?
No. The Medication Dosage Calculator runs entirely in your browser — your inputs never leave your device, and nothing is uploaded or stored.
Worked example
At 10 mg/kg for a 20 kg child: 10 × 20 = 200 mg per dose — an illustration only; always follow the prescription and a clinician's instructions.
