SPECIAL REPORT
Dosing antibiotics has become a significant element of the pharmacist's role in hospital settings. In my observations, dosing vancomycin (and aminoglycosides) is quite common and time-consuming for many pharmacists, and everyone has their own methods. While many hospitals define protocols for vancomycin dosing, a decent amount of flexibility is given to the pharmacist. With the pharmacy community so closely knit, it is time we find a way to unify this method and maximize efficiency.

"As a student, I had put my vancomycin dosing equations into a spreadsheet. I realized later, on rotations, that this would be useful to practicing pharmacists and would make an excellent mobile app." |
