Doses

Specify Age and Weight Ranges: For each dose, provide the following information:

1. Age From (Y/M): Enter the lower age range, specifying both years and months.

MedApp’s Dose Configuration feature streamlines the process of selecting appropriate medication dosages. Here’s how it works:

2. Automatic Suggestion: When creating a prescription, MedApp’s system reviews the patient’s age and weight, and if within the defined ranges, automatically suggests a suitable dosage.

3. Doctor’s Responsibility: While the system’s automatic suggestion is designed to aid doctors in selecting accurate dosages, it remains the sole responsibility of the doctor to thoroughly review and confirm the suggested dose before finalizing the prescription.
