I use it in clinic urgent care and or the ER every day                     Great app JKurland

Seriously no Ketamine Propofol or other conscious sedation or Emergency drugs I guess if you work in a clinic this might be helpful but any type of Emergency setting its a waste of money     not for Emergency Trauma debi869

This is by far my all time favorite app I m a second yr FP resident and have been using it since med school I use it nearly daily or continually when on peds rotations I recommend it to my fellow residents and to any med students I m mentoring It has wt based dosing for IV and PO and tells me how many mLs not just mg for PO which is great or even how many total mLs needed to complete a PO course of abx It will graph bilis and link to recommendations Love the age calculator and change weight calculator It will graph growth curves and give BP percentile who likes looking up BP normal ranges It s painful It will calculate IV bolus volumes and maintenance rates I use this for adults too since it has that option I think it does a lot of other stuff and has useful resource links too but this is the stuff I use most often Just realized today when reading through reviews that it has all the Pals drugs listed in a separate section and that you can search drugs by generic Love it even more now I was always frustrated by the brand names in the scroll list Not sure why I never thought to search before                     My favorite DrLabgirl

I just started using this App but have a few observations so far Pro s I really like how some of the common medications are separated by indication e g acyclovir varicella vs Acyclovir HSV I like the additional app features such as mid parent height growth chart and basic dosage calculator However I could not get the growth chart to work I got an error message regardless of the height and weight I entered Cons there should be a simple way to sort between only brand name and generic meds in the list view Not all meds are listed under both their trade and generic names e g Keflex yes but not cephalexin Phenergan but not promethazine This makes it difficult to search unless you have a very thorough mental inventory of both trade and generic names Several of the web links did not work Recommendation to the author I think you have a great app in development but I am concerned about the lack of dosage maximums built into the calculator e g I was running sample calculations with decadron and the suggested dose for a 56 kg child was 33 7mg This exceeds the published max daily dose of 20mg and the typical max dose of 10mg I would like to see each drugs calculation stop at the max dose despite the weight entered AND have the max daily dose listed right below the suggested dose for safety I would also suggest that there be an option to quickly select different supply concentrations route of administration dosage ranges and frequency of dosing etc While this app has a lot of potential I think some of the problems I described could lead to dosing errors I will continue to test the app and re post another review soon             Ups and downs MN RN, FNP

Sorry you re having troubles Tony S Actually there are 17 narcotic opioid medications in the formulary in multiple formulations listed by trade and generic names including 5 PCA medications All medications are searchable by trade or generic names from the search bar If you look under the All Versions tab there are 46 reviews and none of them are paid You re right there is a huge need for pediatric dosing apps and I ve worked very hard to make Pedi QuikCalc the best Many many users agree Check out the built in help file there are great tips to help you get the most out of Pedi QuikCalc BTW it s hard to call a 2 app overpriced                     Multiple narcotic formulations and no paid reviews PediQuikCalcDev

very poor narcotic selection brand names only does not offer different combination strength for narcotic solution preparations I suspect the positive reviews are mostly paid This app does not dovetail very well with real world usage I guess you should be suspicious when something with a huge need pediatric dose calculator has only a few reviews     Overrated and overpriced Do not buy Tony Stilson

Now that I have figured out how to work this app I am a new FNP and have been trying to find what I want to use regularly I do enjoy it quite a bit What I DON T like is that the meds are sorted by BRAND name When I think of a medication to give I don t think Zithromax I think azithromycin I don t think Motrin I think ibuprofen I tried to find a setting to sort a different way but I couldn t find anything I WISH WISH WISH there was a way to sort them either way I love that I can at least favorite the meds I use the most so I don t have to scroll SO far to find the brand name but it is still a little obnoxious sometimes                 Why only brand name sorting anh06005

I retract my previous review I deleted the app downloaded the app again all is well                 I retract my previous review Bamanurse97

This is an indispensable app that I use atleast a couple of times per day I m a family doc and don t have time to memorize dosing for every weight and don t want to risk miscalculating Only Wish meds were listed by name brand and generic and that it was updated more regularly                     Invaluable dontfollowmeplease

If I was only allowed to pick one app for my daily pediatric life this would be the one Sure you can find all of this in different places but having it all together in one is fantastic The fact that it is an app and not a link to a website makes a speedy and that s key here                     Peds in the trench abollmann

I work as a primary care pediatrician and I find this to be the most useful app to assist me in my clinical practice on a daily basis It s weight based dosing formulary covers 95 of the medicines I use on the daily basis and it contains an excellent list of curated links to commonly used websites and resources A fantastic resource that has earned its place on my home screen                     Dr Wes Henricksen whenric

I ve been using this app for about a year now It has eliminated the need to use about 5 separate apps since it has so many tools I m very pleased with the drug dosing and bili calculator Also the BMI calculator and instant IV fluid calculator are quite handy Vaccine dosing schedules are included too This app was definitely a bargain                     Great app for inpatient and outpatient peds carpenoctum

This is a great app for calculating pediatric dosages User friendly and cuts my time seeing patients significantly Highly recommend                     Love this App Ben0516

A must have app for every pediatrician Nothing like it out there My favorite features are easily calculating percent weight loss on babies the drug calculator with tons of recommended doses built in e g Amox Lyme disease dosing or zmax strep dosing and quick access to lots of useful links like bilitool                     A must have app for every pediatrician JdawgMoll

I work in a Peds clinic and find this app makes my script writing easy and accurate I find it most helpful for drugs I need but only use infrequently I like the desired dose being highlighted in blue                     Great App Peds PA

I ve been practicing Pediatrics for 8 years now and have never considered myself tech savvy It all changed with Pedi Quikcalc Great format easy to use even for me lots of relevant info and easy access to references This is a no nonsense app that is worth millions yet is incredibly affordable particularly for med students and residents Had a little problem with opening the app after an unpdate sent an email and got a response in less than 10 minutes flat If you want your life as a Pediatrician made a thousand times easier with a fraction of the cost a Psychiatrist would charge for setting you straight because of the overwhelming amount of info you need to manage on a daily basis this app is for you                     Indispensable app for busy Pediatricians M. Rodriguez, MD, FAAP

I rely on this app throughout the day as a pharmacist it has become my go to tool for pediatric dosing I freaked when the 1 6 1 release failed to even open after upgrading I gave the app 1 star and notified the author Dr Bonney immediately wrote me back explaining what happened and promised a fix within a week The fix is now available as 1 6 2 and all is right with the world Thank you so much for providing this tool and your incredible dedication to it support                     Great App INCREDIBLE support Melvyn Rosengarden
