Mg/Min to Ml/Hr Calculator

Formula

To calculate the flow rate (\(FR\)):

\[ FR = \frac{Dosage \times 60}{Concentration} \]

Where:

\(FR\) is the flow rate (ml/hr)
Dosage is the medication amount administered per minute (mg/min)
Concentration is the medication concentration in the solution (mg/ml)

What is Mg/Min to Ml/Hr Conversion?

The conversion from mg/min to ml/hr is commonly used in medical settings, especially for calculating the flow rate of intravenous (IV) infusions. It allows healthcare providers to set up IV pumps and administer medications at the correct rate, ensuring that patients receive the proper amount of medication over time.

Example Calculation 1

Let's assume the following values:

Dosage = 5 mg/min
Concentration = 2 mg/ml

Using the formula:

\[ FR = \frac{5 \times 60}{2} = 150 \text{ ml/hr} \]

The flow rate is 150 ml/hr.

Example Calculation 2

Let's assume the following values:

Dosage = 10 mg/min
Concentration = 4 mg/ml

Using the formula:

\[ FR = \frac{10 \times 60}{4} = 150 \text{ ml/hr} \]

The flow rate is 150 ml/hr.
