- Version 1.9.0 of PedDrugDose is released. This version
incorporates the Tamiflu dosing (which has been available for a month
in the online version). Since Tamiflu does not use simple
weight-based dosing, this was not originally included in either version
of PedDrugDose. When the FDA released an advisory about the
prevalence of pediatric dosing errors for this particular medication, I
decided to incorporate the dosing guidelines in PedDrugDose,
immediately in the online version and included it in the next release
of the executable.
The visual dose advisor,
also long standard in
the online version, is now present in the executable. This gives an
easy way to tell where your dose fits within the standard
range. A sample is shown on the right.
