How is Dosing Calculated?

Dosing is typically calculated using weight-based or BSA-based formulas. For weight-based dosing, the formula is:
\[ \text{Dose (mg)} = \text{Dose (mg/kg)} \times \text{Weight (kg)} \]
For BSA-based dosing, the formula is:
\[ \text{Dose (mg)} = \text{Dose (mg/m}^2\text{)} \times \text{BSA (m}^2\text{)} \]
Online calculators and resources are often used to ensure precision.
