This application is primarily intended for community nurses in the UK to assist cross-checking of manual drug calculations when making up syringe pumps for palliative care patients.
This application is not approved by NHS or any other healthcare body and you should not rely on it to perform drug calculations. The authors accept no liability for any errors in the application.
The drug information is based on the back page of the NHS "Community Palliative Care Drug Chart" (Version 5 reviewed June 2017) with the addition of Fentanyl and Oxycodone.
