Understanding Veterinary Weight-Based Dosing
Most veterinary medications are prescribed using a mg/kg (milligrams per kilogram) formula. This ensures that a 5lb Chihuahua and a 150lb Great Dane receive a proportional dose relative to their metabolic body weight.
The Golden Formula
Weight (kg) × Dose (mg/kg) = Total Dose (mg)
To get weight in KG from LB, divide the weight in LB by 2.20462.
Safety Thresholds
Always check the maximum daily limit (mg/day) which often differs from the per-dose calculation.
