AndroGel 1.62% days supply for the 88 g pump (75 g dispensed, 60 actuations of 1.25 g) and cartons of 1.25 g or 2.5 g packets.
Enter the quantity dispensed and how much the patient uses per day. The calculator converts the sig into daily use, then divides the dispensed amount to give days supply with the full worked math.
This calculator uses the same training math as the Creams, ointments & gels calculator and sits on the days-supply calculator hub. Compare hydrocortisone cream days supply or Estrace cream calculator. See tools hub or practice on the pharmacy technician math quiz.
The 88 g pump dispenses 75 g of gel as 60 actuations of 1.25 g (20.25 mg testosterone each). Two actuations a day are 2.5 g/day, and 75 ÷ 2.5 = 30 days. Dividing the 88 g pump weight instead floors to 35 days and counts gel the pump does not dispense. Packets are 1.25 g or 2.5 g, in cartons of 30. AndroGel 1% is a different label.
No. 88 g is the pump weight. The 1.62% label dispenses 75 g as 60 actuations. Days supply depends on how many actuations the sig uses per day.
Divide the total quantity dispensed by the amount the patient uses per day. The hard part is converting the sig into a daily amount first: milliliters per day, puffs per day, drops per day, units per day, or grams per day.
