Do you struggle with medication math problems and need help with detailed explanations as to why you are calculating for certain values? Then you've come to the right place! This weight-based medication math calculation video walks you through the process of solving for the dosage required to be given based on a patient's body weight. This problem was solved through the Dose Desired divided by Have Available times the Quantity formula, and required proper knowledge of unit conversions, basic math principles, and identification of factors found within the word problem.

I have helped HUNDREDS of nursing students understand difficult concepts such as med-surg disorders, medication math calculations, EKG readings, fluids&electrolytes, and much more! As an experienced RN and nurse tutor, I have helped students improve their grades, pass their courses, and even the NCLEX!
