Drug dosage formula need to come back!
As of version 3.0.5, the following formulas were removed:
Calvert
Corticosteroids Converter
NAC Dosing
Opioid Converter
Pediatric Resuscitation Doses
Dose Calculator (was planned for future versions)
Apparently they were forced by Apple to remove them to comply with the App Store policy...
However, Epocrates and many other medical apps have drug dosage calculators. Why then should a great app like MedCalc not be allowed to have drug dose calculators?
I don't know the details of why the formulas had to be removed, but vote if you want the formulas back!

Please add a formula for calculating pediatric dosing of acetaminophen. There could be an input for weight in pounds or kilograms, and a selection for 10 or 15 mg/kg, with an output in mg and ml using standard concentration 160/5ml.

I thought there used to be an opioid equivalence calculator in MedCalc...I couldn’t find it here. That would be nice.

In the very first edition of MedCalc you had an easy steroid equivalence calculator. It's honestly one of the only reasons I waited so long to upgrade because none of the new versions have this! It's a very simple calculator, but very useful for hospital admissions with people on pred who all of a sudden can't take any pills by mouth and need to me switched to IV steroids (small bowel obstruction, for example). Could this be added?
Thanks. Love the app. Use it all the time.

Creo que el método Rosendaal para valorar el tiempo en rango terapéutico de los dicumarínicos es importante para valorar el cambio a los nuevos anticoagulantes orales.
