Work out dose frequency schedule instantly with clear inputs, formula shown and shareable results.
Turns a doses-per-day instruction into an interval and a clock schedule, either evenly across 24 hours or compressed into waking hours.
Dose interval
Interval = spread of hours / number of doses when dosing around the clock, or spread / (doses - 1) when fitting doses into waking hours
Educational estimate only. Not a substitute for professional clinical judgement, and must not be used to make treatment or dosing decisions.
Strictly yes, but many medicines are prescribed four times daily within waking hours, which shortens the daytime gaps.
