    Local Anesthetic Dosing Calculator

    Doses local anesthetics to help avoid toxic doses.

    IMPORTANT

    This calculator provides guidance for maximum dosing of local anesthetic and should not be used as the primary means of dosing. Always double check and err on the side of caution.

    INSTRUCTIONS

    Note: Previous versions of Goldfrank’s reported an increased maximum allowable dosage due to the vasoconstrictive effects of epinephrine when added to local anesthetics. The most recent version no longer includes this adjustment. While there likely is a higher safe dose when epinephrine is added, we no longer include that estimate on this calculator, and as always, dosages should be double-checked and reviewed using your local pharmacy and policies.
