Weight-based pediatric dose calculator
Enter the weight, the dose per kg, how often, and the formulation. Dosis Kids tells you how many ml to give each dose, plus the mg per dose and per day.
How it works
The calculation you'd do by hand on shift, on a single screen with a big result.
Enter the patient's weight in kg.
The dose in mcg, mg or g per kg, and whether it's the daily total or the amount per dose.
How often: 4, 6, 8, 12 or 24 h with one tap, or any interval you need.
As the bottle says: “4 mg in 5 ml” or “8 %”.
Result
2.5 ml per dose
Volume per dose shown big, plus mg per dose and per day. A daily dose is split evenly across the interval.
Features
Save formulations
Manual calculation is free and unlimited. To save your own formulations, there's a one-time in-app purchase.

The final price depends on your country and is set by the App Store. If the purchase is no longer active, your formulations stay: you can still view, use and delete them.
Privacy
Dosis Kids has no server and no accounts. It doesn't store patient data: the weight you enter is used to calculate and isn't saved.
No sign-up or sign-in. Open the app and calculate.
Saved formulations store the medication scheme, never patient data.
No tracking or usage metrics. Nothing leaves your device.
Calculations happen on your device, no internet needed.
Always double-check the result before giving a medication. Dosis Kids is a calculation aid and doesn't replace professional judgment or a medical order. Read the privacy policy.
