How Vet Radar automatically calculates a medication's dosage information
You can add a medication to a patient sheet. If a practice manager configured the medication in ezyVet, Vet Radar automatically enters the dosage information of the medication when you add it. As a result, staff can quickly and easily see the necessary dosage information.
Note: Dosage information is:
- The dose rate of the medication
- The total dosage of the medication
- The total volume of the medication
- The concentration of the medication
Vet Radar uses the settings of the medication in ezyVet to calculate the total dosage. If a practice manager configured the medication in ezyVet:
- ezyVet automatically syncs the values in the Concentration section to the Concentration box in Vet Radar
- ezyVet automatically syncs the values of the Default Dosage section to the Dose rate* box in Vet Radar
- ezyVet automatically syncs the Default Administration method to the Route of administration box in Vet Radar
This image shows the dosage information that ezyVet syncs to Vet Radar:
Note: If you enable the CRI setting, Vet Radar does not show the synced dosage information from ezyVet:
Available units of measurement in ezyVet shows the units of measurement that are available in ezyVet. Vet Radar cannot calculate the medication's dosage information if a practice manager selects:
- A unit of measurement of the second column and the third column of the table
- Two different units of measurement of the third column of the table
Vet Radar can calculate the medication's dosage information if a practice manager selects:
- One unit of measurement of the second column of the table
- Two units of measurement of the second column of the table
- One unit of measurement of the third column of the table
