Knowledge deficit: Medical calculations

peaceful2100, BSN, RN · Sep 23, 2001

I know how you are feeling. Math is not my strongest subject but I have found with drug calculations the more you practice the better you become. Make flash cards of all the formulas you need to know. Memorize the formulas. Once you memorize the formulas then start practicing the problems. You will begin to understand them after memorizing the formulas and continous practice.

I have this website in my favorites. It has really helped me. Drug calculation tutorial
