Make practice life easy with a pocket guide which helps you:

• Accurately calculate and administer medication doses - regardless of the formulation of your drug

• Accurately dilute injectable medications, and reconstitute powdered medications, to a certain concentration

• Understand percentage solutions, and how to convert them to mg/ml

• Convert your units - no more confusion about mcg, mg and g!

• Accurately calculate and administer fluid therapy to dehydrated patients

• Administer intravenous fluid boluses to emergency patients

• Calculate fluid rates when you don’t have a drip pump to hand

• Administer constant rate infusions without the headache - either by a syringe driver, or a fluid bag

• Supplement intravenous fluids with glucose, to a set percentage

• Supplement intravenous fluids with potassium, depending on your individual patient’s blood results

• Formulate a nutritional plan for your inpatients, ensuring they’re receiving exactly the right volume of food.

It also comes with a downloadable bonus workbook, so you can practice these calculations and test your knowledge!
