Practice questions from every area of drug calculations
Practise drug calculations
and revise for your exam.
Dos is a practice app for drug calculations. Work through practice tests of ten questions, get extra practice on what you find hardest, and follow how you are improving.
Everything you need to feel prepared
Not a generic quiz app. Dos brings together every area of drug calculations, then aims your practice where you need it most.
Feel prepared for drug calculations
Instead of guessing what to expect, you practise on questions that cover every area of drug calculations, all in one place.
Practise with ten-question tests
Ten questions per test, split by topic. Each patient case can have several parts, and the calculator is always visible next to the question.
Targeted practice on what you find hard
Dos shows where you lose marks per topic, so you can aim your next session exactly where it helps most, rather than going over what you already know.
Track your progress
Results, the number of tests completed and the time you have put in are collected per topic, so you can see in black and white that it is sinking in.
Every area of drug calculations, in one place
Ten topics, so no area is left out.

How do you practise drug calculations for your exam?
The most effective way to practise drug calculations is to work through realistic questions, not just read the formulas. In Dos you practise on tests of ten questions, split by topic, from measures and weights to infusion rates.
How do you practise drug calculations most effectively?
Practising drug calculations regularly, rather than cramming just before the exam, gives the best results. Dos keeps track of your progress with statistics on results, tests completed and time per topic, so you can see exactly where your next session does the most good. The calculator is always visible next to the question.
Built for how you actually practise
Details that ordinary practice apps often lack, but that decide whether practising really helps.
The calculator stays with you, all the way
The question stays fixed at the top while you work in the calculator below, with no jumping between apps or notepads. Answer to move on, then the next question slides in.
Not just numbers
Some questions are open, such as who a medicine is usually prescribed for. Dos practises your reasoning too, not just the calculation.
Realistic patient cases
Several parts can belong to the same patient case. They count together as one question out of ten, never piece by piece.
A plan built around you, not a generic syllabus
Before your first test you answer where you stand, and Dos puts together a plan from that, with a clear checklist and progress all the way.
