CALC: Vancomycin Levels

This is likely to be disastrously wrong, I’m just tinkering here with the code to see how a calculation package might look. Please, do not use any of this information. Beta Vancomycin Level & Half-life (AU) Calculator Intermittent dosing at a fixed infusion rate of 1000 mg/h. Add doses & levels; the calculator estimates k, […]
