I just wanna say that you have really given me the confidence I need to move forward in becoming a nurse 👩🏾⚕️. I’ve been a cna for almost 13 years! For years I’ve doubted my self due to dosage calculation because math gives me anxiety but this really is so helpful! Thank you!!! 💛
Math has never been my thing I’m just finding your videos and I love it here already, you make it so much easier to understand,these videos give the eagerness to learn this, thank you so very much keep them coming
Girl! You just totally SAVED MY LIFE😭 not even the teacher could get me to understand this, but watching your video, I FREAKING GOT IT! I can't thank you enough, you're a total blessing girl! 🙏🙏🙏
Woohoo! Thanks for letting us know you loved the video, Jennifer!! We're so happy to hear that! 😊 Would you be alright with us using your kind words as a testimonial to help spread the word about NursingSOS?! Please let us know if you are comfortable with this! Jennifer Gonzales you CAN do this!
I've almost failed out of the nursing program twice now because I couldn't get past darn dosage calc exams! Thank you so much for this video! I wish I discovered it sooner 😭❤
Ro ♡, you will do AMAZING things, and each day intentionally decide to do better, be stronger, and take action towards your goal! You've got this, friend! 😊 Thanks for being here!! Have a fantastic day!
I love your videos!!!! Thank you! You break the questions down using your steps so well. They have given me confidence in doing them. I'm applying to nursing school soon and I thought I would get a jump start on practicing these kinds of problems. So grateful!!!
So grateful for this breakdown! I JUST received my acceptance letter for my program starting in May!! We have a fb support group and wanted you to know this video was just posted to share with the others and more will be posted as time goes on- your videos are like my life coach right now lol! Thank you so much for contributing to our success!
Thank you for letting us know you loved this video, Dara Lawson. 😊 Our favorite part of our day is hearing about how our resources have helped YOU! Your support means the world to us. 😁
Oh my gosh!!!! I just had a light bulb turn on!!! I cannot thank you enough! I have been in tears because I was struggling so much and you just made it all make sense!!! I'm off to do a billion and one practice questions!!! THANK YOU!!! If you aren't already a nurse educator in your "day job", you should seriously consider it. Your instructions are clear, concise, and easy to understand. I will be following your channel all the way through nursing school!! ❤💋❤💋
Great method, you broke down the steps beautifully in a practical way to approach any problem. It's exactly what I needed. You are the only person that described as well where to put the conversions in the fraction set up. That threw me for a loop before this video!!!
I absolutely needed to tell you...you have completely saved me from the terrors of math in nursing school! God Bless You!!! Its like a lightbulb went on and everything just clicked for me, I can literally do any nursing dosage problem with such ease. My math anxiety is gone! I cannot thank you enough!!
Yay! 😃 So glad these dose calc videos are helpful for you, Theresa Dowdy! That is so AMAZING that you are feeling so confident in your dose calc questions! WOOHOO! Thank you for being here. Have a fantastic day 😊
You really broke this down in an understandable way, my teacher moves way to fast and doesn't go back to help when going over lessons. I am so glad I found you. You are truly a life saver. Thanks
Thank you for letting us know you loved this video, Ebb. 😊 Our favorite part of our day is hearing about how our resources have helped YOU! Your support means the world to us. 😁
We are so happy you are here! Congratulations on starting nursing school, Sheryl de Leon! You will do AMAZING things, and each day intentionally decide to do better, be stronger, and take action towards your goal! You've got this, friend! 😊
This was so helpful. There are plenty of instructors and videos out there that dive right in and gloss over the basics. Well if you don't remember the proper positioning or conversion to begin with, the whole problem is wasted. With so much information thrown at students, it's helpful to have something that just breaks it down to us :) Shout out to everyone who struggles in math but is still pushing on!
So happy to hear this video was helpful for you, M J! 😊 YAY! We LOVE hearing how our resources helped you feel more confident in your knowledge, especially when it comes to dose calc! Hope you have a fantastic day, M J. 😀
I'm glad I found your video because we just started doing these calculations in my pharmacology class, very helpful and encouraging ❤ keep up the good work.
I absolutely love you. Your video’s are so Awesome. I felt as though I wasn’t sure about dosage calculations and you Simply explained and now I know that I have this. Thank you for all that you do. You Simply ROCK. Thank you Jesus for allowing me to find her💕
Thank you for this video. This is how I was taught dosage calculations. On my test I worked the problems backwards to see I came back to the Doctors order. I caught calculation mistakes that way.
Such a good way to do it! You're always so nice, Patricia Coulter. We're so happy you're here! Thanks for always being so supportive of everything we do here. :)
i just got accpeted into the RN program in my school and i have a dosage calculation exam on my 2nd day of orientation! I was totally freaking out!!!! But you helped make this soooo SIMPLE!!!!! i am totally sticking to this method you explained! thank you so much, i feel confident about the exam! i look forward to learning more from you!!! OF COURSE I SUBSCRIBED :-)
Thank you ! You have made this dimensional analysis so clear ! I have never watched any video so far that really explains it so clearly . Some talk a lot about it but it was never so clear . I am flabbergasted 😲 -yeaaa !!! I understand !!
YAY! Thank you for letting us know you loved this video, Hosea Rowe. 😊 Our favorite part of our day is hearing about how our resources have helped YOU! Your support means the world to us. 😁
You've got the cutest personality/expressions and it's sooooo easy to learn from you!! Glad I found you!! THANK YOU so much for your time/dedication in helping us learn how to become a nurse.... and with confidence♥
I'm a non-traditional 50 yo nursing student, and I want to give you a shout-out and many thanks. You make things seem not so stressful and have built confidence in me as I move along in my first year of school. Thank you. However, I've sent a request multiple times to receive my cheat sheet for dosage calculations and have not received it.
So happy to hear this video was helpful for you, @Arstormcat! 😊 We LOVE hearing how our resources helped you feel more confident in your knowledge! So sorry to hear that the cheat sheet wasn't working for you, if you email us at hello@nursingsos.com we can get that taken care of right away fro you! Hope you have a fantastic day, @Arstormcat. 😀
Thank you so much for this, I have an exam in a few days and this is by far the best video I’ve found. Thank you for being clear, slow and digestible.😊
We LOVE hearing this from students, Katie Mcgrogan!! 😁😁 So happy to hear this video helped you better understand it! You are going to do FANTASTIC! Thank you for being here! :)
Thankyou for breaking it down so simply! I will stick to this method and practice a ton! Saving grades girl one video at a time! Keep up the good work! We all appreciate you!!:)
I had given up on nursing school. I thought it was only a childhood fantasy. You have broken this down so awesome. I am ready to give it my all. I want to follow all of your videos. You made me feel. It is never to late. Sylvia
We LOVE hearing this from students, sylvia smith!! 😁😁 So happy to hear this video helped you better understand it and encouraged you to follow your dreams! ❤️ You are going to do FANTASTIC!

Nursing SOS you are amazing girl. I mean the way you explain stuff is heaven... God bless you so much thank you for helping us and making it easier to understand. I am truly appreciative of you and am glad you love helping people. Thank you so much for giving me the confidence that I need to be able to succeed. You have been a true blessing in my life.
I just got accepted into nursing school for January I’m scared but my mom send me your videos so I’m hoping that she has found you sooner hopefully I can practice dose calc for December month before I start and get it right
So happy to hear this video was helpful for you, Jessica Pittman! 😊 We LOVE hearing how our resources helped you feel more confident in your knowledge! Hope you have a fantastic day, Jessica Pittman. 😀
Such a helpful video! I do have a question though. On the first problem you did (on the computer) you have 50mg of Rx, but in the nursing cart you had only 25mg of the Rx. The answer you ended up with was 2 tablets to equal out to 50mg, which of course is correct, however what is really throwing me if that the sentence was written, "The doctor ordered 50mg of Metprolol TWICE a day for hypertension." So... does that mean the patient really needs 100mg's of Rx a day? Would the answer than be 4 tablets?? I'm sorry, I just am confused. Thanks for any help you can offer!
Abby England, getting the hang of how these dose calc problems are written can be part of the challenge of the dose calc exam too, so you are not alone in feeling this way! Keep doing practice problems, the more you do the more confident you will become! The problem is asking for how many tablets you would give your patient right now, if they were asking for how many tablets you would give them per day it would have specified per day. Unless the question specifies per day, it should be solved per dose since that is what you would be giving your patient at one time. I hope that helps to clarify it for you, friend! You are doing better than you think you are, Keep the faith!
Polin Vrachovska, yes exactly, all about the wording. Medication questions can be a challenge to figure out exactly what they are asking for. You CAN do this, keep practicing those practice problems!
i just found out i have to take a dosage calculation challenge on the first day of nursing school and I panicked so much this video was so helpful thank you so much never stop making videos
Oh my goodness!!! You would not believe how much you helped me especially to decide what is important in the problem and what is not! Thank you so much for your videos!!! You are a great teacher! How to get access to your website and more videos?
So happy to hear this video was helpful for you, Anya Nes! You will do GREAT!

We LOVE hearing this from students, Uyinmwen Omoroghomwan!! 😁😁 So happy to hear this video helped you better understand it! You are going to do FANTASTIC!
Been out of school since 1982. Yes, I’m still working! The new job I’m taking will probably have a pharmacology test. You’ve helped me tremendously!! Thank you 😊. Everything has been in unit dose or jobs that didn’t require calculations. Amazing, right?! I start orientation tomorrow. Fingers crossed 🤞
So happy to hear this video was helpful for you, Piya Khan! 😊 We LOVE hearing how our resources helped you feel more confident in your knowledge! Hope you have a fantastic day, Piya Khan. 😀
So happy to hear this video was helpful for you, Brittany Griffin! We always want to provide nursing students with topics they want, so we will definitely that on the list for future videos. In the mean time, we actually have a whole dose calc course available for purchase you might find really helpful! You can check it out here: nursingschoolofsuccess.com/shop/ You will do GREAT! Thank you for being here, your support means the world to us. 😊
Wow I thought I had dimensional analysis down after chemistry, but I keep getting distracted with that med cart. Thank you for these questions and explanation!
Great video !! Is there like a conversation chart you could go by if you don’t have it memorized and just not good with math. It’s been years since I did conversation and I kinda forgot and I’m about to take dosages calculation for lpn school.
Thanks for letting us know you loved this video, BeingKeshia 100%! Here is a link to a cheat sheet that has some dose calc conversions, and some other SUPER helpful nursing cheat sheets you will LOVE: nursingschoolofsuccess.com/70068036222222807723935-7723935/
Thank you for this video!! I do have a question about the acetaminophen for the toddler problem, these are the problems that give me all the anxiety. This may sound dumb and I’m so sorry. When you set up your problem in the “have” part you put the kg/lbs then mL/mg, would it have been wrong to flip them and instead go mL/mg then to kg/lbs? Hope this question made sense. Thank you 🙏
So happy to hear this video was helpful for you, Eloisa Olmos! 😊That isn't a dumb question! So as long as you can cross out your units then it will work and the order doesn't matter as much. But you would have to be able to cross out your units so that you are left with the units you "need" at the end. I hope that helps clarify it for you! 😀
new subscriber! love this video, thank you so much. Question--how do we check our work? can you give me an example of how to work backwards and confirm we have the correct answer once we are done calculating? thank you!
Great question!! To check your work you would go back through and do the problem again, making sure it all lined up correctly. Thank you for being here, Quincy Masur! 😊
Hi, firstly thank you so much for your contribution to nursing education. I had a question when one of the answers in the video was 1000. When an answer is 1000 or greater, shouldn't anything at 1000 or greater have a comma (ie, 1,000 instead of 1000) ? Thank you in advance :)
I have a question on the second problem. I got 4 tablets for TWICE A DAY. how did you get only 2? Do you just have to calculate how many 50mg pt will need a day or how many 25mg pt will take a day? Thank you!
You would use the same calculations to get the min/max for dosages and the daily amount you would just do the additional step of adding however many doses there were supposed to be in a day (BID x2, TID x3) and for min/max calculate the range in between! Hope that helps! Thanks for being here, crystal brown!
I just wanna say that you have really given me the confidence I need to move forward in becoming a nurse 👩🏾⚕️. I’ve been a cna for almost 13 years! For years I’ve doubted my self due to dosage calculation because math gives me anxiety but this really is so helpful! Thank you!!! 💛

The answer you ended up with was 2 tablets to equal out to 50mg, which of course is correct, however what is really throwing me if that the sentence was written, "The doctor ordered 50mg of Metprolol TWICE a day for hypertension." So... does that mean the patient really needs 100mg's of Rx a day? Would the answer than be 4 tablets?? I'm sorry, I just am confused. Thanks for any help you can offer!
Abby England, getting the hang of how these dose calc problems are written can be part of the challenge of the dose calc exam too, so you are not alone in feeling this way! Keep doing practice problems, the more you do the more confident you will become! The problem is asking for how many tablets you would give your patient right now, if they were asking for how many tablets you would give them per day it would have specified per day. Unless the question specifies per day, it should be solved per dose since that is what you would be giving your patient at one time. I hope that helps to clarify it for you, friend! You are doing better than you think you are, Keep the faith!
@@NursingSOS okay I had this exact question, but now I see its all about the wording.
Polin Vrachovska, yes exactly, all about the wording. Medication questions can be a challenge to figure out exactly what they are asking for. You CAN do this, keep practicing those practice problems!
Thank you so much

Great video !! Is there like a conversation chart you could go by if you don’t have it memorized and just not good with math. It’s been years since I did conversation and I kinda forgot and I’m about to take dosages calculation for lpn school.

i appreciate your video
devin breckmann yay! We are so happy to hear that this video helped you understand better. 😊 You will do GREAT, friend!
Thank you for this video!! I do have a question about the acetaminophen for the toddler problem, these are the problems that give me all the anxiety. This may sound dumb and I’m so sorry. When you set up your problem in the “have” part you put the kg/lbs then mL/mg, would it have been wrong to flip them and instead go mL/mg then to kg/lbs? Hope this question made sense. Thank you 🙏
So happy to hear this video was helpful for you, Eloisa Olmos! 😊That isn't a dumb question! So as long as you can cross out your units then it will work and the order doesn't matter as much. But you would have to be able to cross out your units so that you are left with the units you "need" at the end. I hope that helps clarify it for you! 😀
new subscriber! love this video, thank you so much. Question--how do we check our work? can you give me an example of how to work backwards and confirm we have the correct answer once we are done calculating? thank you!
Great question!! To check your work you would go back through and do the problem again, making sure it all lined up correctly. Thank you for being here, Quincy Masur! 😊
Hi, firstly thank you so much for your contribution to nursing education. I had a question when one of the answers in the video was 1000. When an answer is 1000 or greater, shouldn't anything at 1000 or greater have a comma (ie, 1,000 instead of 1000) ? Thank you in advance :)
Great question, Sal Shino! The commas can get confused with decimal points, so check with your program what they prefer! Thank you for being here😊
You rock!!😁
Thanks for being here, Naomi Johnson!
I have a question on the second problem. I got 4 tablets for TWICE A DAY. how did you get only 2? Do you just have to calculate how many 50mg pt will need a day or how many 25mg pt will take a day? Thank you!
I like you already! Thank you for doing this 🦋
I'm so glad! Thanks for being here, S.Joseph!
Could you show some examples of dosage calculations with single min and max dosage and daily min and max dosage .
You would use the same calculations to get the min/max for dosages and the daily amount you would just do the additional step of adding however many doses there were supposed to be in a day (BID x2, TID x3) and for min/max calculate the range in between! Hope that helps! Thanks for being here, crystal brown!
