Tamiflu oral suspension concentration mg per ml?

What concentration (mg/mL) is Tamiflu oral suspension?

Tamiflu oral suspension is supplied so the final concentration is 12 mg per mL (12 mg/mL).

Why do people see different numbers when dosing Tamiflu?

Different documents often show dosing as “mg” or “mL” and can look inconsistent if you mix units. What matters for calculation is that the suspension you measure from the bottle is 12 mg per mL, so the dose in mg equals the dose in mL multiplied by 12.

How to convert an ordered dose to mL

If a clinician orders a dose of X mg, then the volume to measure is:

- mL = (mg dose) / 12

If you tell me the exact dose in mg (for example, 30 mg, 45 mg, etc.) and the patient’s age/weight dosing schedule you’re using, I can convert it to mL.
