Can you "share your mnemonic for drug doses.
I recall reading a mneumonic the other day, but can't retrieve the thread or locate by search funtion. mg per kg
Thanks, Bob

I have one, it goes like this...

"Know your protocols"

I refrained from my post earlier. You said it nicer than I originally tried to word it

OP, if you're having trouble, try using flash cards throughout the day.

flashcards are great. I pull out my acls and treatment guidelines book a few times a week and go through ones that I don't use often.

Man, just rote memorization during school for the pharm quizzes. They will stay with you; we use relatively few meds on the rig and dosages are pretty easy. Keep an electronic version of your protocols on your phone or have a cheat sheet with you for some more esoteric peds stuff.
