Frequently asked questions
What is this medication calculator for
Our calculator is designed to help you quickly estimate the correct dosage of certain medications for your dog or cat based on their weight. It aims to provide a helpful starting point for understanding medication amounts
Why do I need to know the medication dosage information (mg/kg or mg/lb)?
This information is crucial for the calculator to work. It tells you how many milligrams of the medication are recommended for each unit of your pet's weight. This information is usually provided by your veterinarian or on the medication packaging.
What if I don't know the medication dosage?
Do not guess! If you don't know the correct dosage prescribed by your veterinarian, do not use the calculator. Contact your vet immediately for clarification. Giving the wrong dose can be harmful or ineffective.
What should I do if the calculated dose looks different from what my vet prescribed?
Always follow your veterinarian's instructions. If there's a discrepancy, double-check the information you entered into the calculator and then contact your vet to confirm the correct dosage.
Can I use this calculator for all types of medications?
This calculator is generally designed for medications where the dosage is directly related to your pet's weight. However, some medications have more complex dosing regimens that depend on other factors besides weight. Always follow your veterinarian's specific instructions for each medication.
