RxCalc vs PneumoRecs VaxAdvisor

RxCalc puts commonly used pharmacokinetic calculations in the palm of your hand with your iPhone or iPod Touch. The fast interface and comprehensive results help you spend less time crunching numbers and more time working on other, more important issues. This tool is designed to help pharmacists, and physicians, quickly perform the most commonly used pharmacokinetic calculations. Calculations for designing new vancomycin and aminoglycoside dosing regimens as well as patient specific post-level adjustments to current dosing regimens are included.

This is the PneumoRecs VaxAdvisor App created by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in collaboration with the Georgia Tech Research Institute. PneumoRecs VaxAdvisor provides patient-specific pneumococcal vaccination guidance consistent with the pneumococcal vaccination recommendations of the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices. Vaccination providers enter a patient’s age and respond to prompts about the patient’s pneumococcal vaccination history and underlying medical conditions. The app then displays patient-specific pneumococcal vaccination recommendations consistent with the recommended U.S. immunization schedule.
