How it is calculated

Tablets = (dose mg/kg × weight kg) ÷ tablet strength (mg), rounded to the nearest split you can make.

The delivered mg/kg after rounding is shown so you can judge whether it is acceptable.

Worked example

12 kg × 2 mg/kg = 24 mg → 0.96 tablets of 25 mg → 1 tablet (2.08 mg/kg delivered).
