The Emergency drugs pane
Use the Emergency drugs pane to quickly and easily calculate the dosage of emergency drugs. An emergency drug is a drug that you give to a patient for emergency care.
Vet Radar shows the Emergency drugs pane on the workflow whiteboard and the patient whiteboard.
The Emergency drugs pane has a Patient weight* box. To calculate the correct quantity of each emergency drug to give to a patient, you must enter the applicable patient weight in the Patient weight* box.
If you select the emergency drugs button of Vet Radar's whiteboards, you cannot add the emergency drug to a patient sheet.
If you select the emergency drugs button of a patient sheet, you can add an emergency drug to the patient sheet. As a result, Vet Radar automatically enters the patient's weight in the Patient weight* box.
