I like this app it's simple and to the points. Pretty handy when your on the floor. You don't have too many options to confuse you but you can still adjust VD to your liking. I'm surprised this app is not reviewed or used that much.
This has been the most useful app for doing pharmacokinetics that I found. It does the calculations for aminoglycosides, vancomycin and high dose extended interval dosing. I have been using it for over five years. It's efficient, no frills interface is quick and can save a lot of time. Highly recommended!
There is no report feature. At least condense the results and relevant data on a single screen that can be air-printed or sent to the device camera roll. As others noted, there are slim pickings for Android kinetics apps. This app is a worthy effort but it needs some improvement.
I have been a clinical pharmacist for 19-years. For the last 8-10 years, I have been using ClinRx on my palm. Unfortunately, ClinRx is not available for I-Pod/I-Phone. I misplaced my palm and was looking for an alternate program. I had seen a review from a professor at UC San Francisco praising RxCalc. I purchased this program based on that review. I found it less than useless. I plugged in the data for a large, relatively young patient with a high vancomycin trough. The data for the single level vancomycin trough provided data that was completely inaccurate. I tried again with similar data. Again, the resultant data was exactly opposite of what someone who is familiar with pharmacokinetics would expect. Example: 1500mg every 8 hours with a reported trough of 28 at 1/2 hour prior to next dose in a 128kg patient recommends a NEW dose of 1750mg every 8 hours for a goal trough of 18. If the trough is already higher than desired, why would you want to increase the dose? The original data on an actual patient provided a Tau of approximately 3 hours when the actual Tau should have been 12-18 hours. I would not recommend this program, especially if the person purchasing the program does not have enough experience to recognize when the data being provided is not accurate.
I found that when using 2 levels to calculate phamacokinetics that the VD is way off from any equations I have seen. Also it does not extrapolate a Cmin and Cmax. This program is useful for calculating first doses. I hope this can be fixed in the next update since this is the only kinetic program I could find for the Google.
