Thanks Brownie! I've always used the computer to figure out the drip rates for different drugs. I've forgotten how to set up the formulas. I want to thank everyone who's responded to my question. Bworn

Thanks! I may be dense or a little sleep deprived but the ratio is 1:1 divided by 60 is .02 X 80 Kg = 1.6 divided by 5mcq/kg/min =.32 X 60 = 19.2....is that correct?

I need some help w/drug calculations! Can someone show me how to do the following? Dopamine 500 mg/500 ml to run at 5mcq/kg/min. Pt wt is 80kg. What would the flow rate in ml be?
