What is Dosage Rate?

Dosage rate refers to the amount of a substance administered per unit of body weight. It is commonly used in medicine to determine the appropriate dosage of medication based on a patient's weight.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula to calculate the dosage rate:

DSR=500150≈3.33

The dosage rate is approximately 3.33 mg/lb.
