Drugs (CREDD)
The CREDD drug dosage guides have dosing information on emergency medicines for patients based on weight. If you're not sure of the weight of the patient you can check the estimated weight based on their age.
All guides open as a PDF. There is also the full CREDD drug dosage guide [PDF 17303.3 KB] and CREDD training resources and videos available.
Estimated weights provided by the Children’s Resuscitation Emergency Drug Dosage (CREDD) book published by Children’s Health Queensland Hospital and Health Service in August 2019. View the CREDD user guide [PDF 290.7 KB] for copyright licensing details.
