## Description

Need to calculate a medication dose for a pet? This MCP provides an advisory tool that estimates drug dosages based on the animal's weight and common veterinary guidelines. Simply provide the pet's weight in kilograms and select the needed medication; the system determines the therapeutic dosage range in milligrams. The calculator first lets you use the `list_available_medications` tool to browse all supported drugs, then checks established mg/kg thresholds using `get_dosage_range`, and finally performs the full calculation via `calculate_medication_dose`. Remember, these calculations rely on hardcoded veterinary standards and must always be verified by a licensed veterinarian. To manage this entire process from your preferred client, you just connect to Vinkius and gain access to all pet care MCPs.

## Tools

### get_dosage_range
Retrieves the specific recommended dosage range for any listed medication in mg/kg.

### list_available_medications
Generates a list of all drugs that this calculator is currently programmed to handle.

### calculate_medication_dose
Performs the final dose calculation by taking the pet's weight and medication name, returning an estimated dose range.

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
What drugs can I calculate doses for right now?
```

**Response:** 
```
**Available Medications**

The calculator supports the following drugs:
*   Metamizole
*   Omeprazole
*   Metronidazole
```

**Prompt:** 
```
What is the recommended range for Omeprazole?
```

**Response:** 
```
**Omeprazole Dosage Range**

Based on current veterinary standards, the recommended dosage range is:
*   **Minimum:** 0.5 mg/kg
*   **Maximum:** 1.0 mg/kg
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Calculate the dose for a 5kg cat using Metronidazole.
```

**Response:** 
```
**Calculated Dose Estimate**

For a pet weighing 5 kg, the estimated dosage of Metronidazole falls between **12.5 mg** and **25.0 mg**. *Always consult a licensed veterinarian.*
```

## Capabilities

### List supported medications
You can retrieve a comprehensive list of drugs that the calculator supports.

### Check standard dosage ranges
The MCP verifies the recommended minimum and maximum mg/kg dose for any given drug.

### Calculate estimated pet doses
You provide the weight and medication, and the tool returns a precise, weighted dose range in milligrams.

## Use Cases

### Checking for an unfamiliar prescription
A vet tech receives a referral for a new drug and isn't sure of the standard dosing. They ask their agent, which first uses `list_available_medications` to confirm support, then runs `get_dosage_range` on the specific drug to get the safe mg/kg thresholds.

### Calculating a dose for an overweight pet
The owner provides their agent with a weight and medication. The tool automatically uses `calculate_medication_dose`, ensuring the resulting estimate is accurately scaled to the pet’s actual body weight.

### Quickly comparing drug options
A practitioner needs to know which of two available drugs works best. They ask their agent, and it uses `list_available_medications` to show all choices, followed by checking the dosage range for each one.

## Benefits

- Avoid manual calculation errors. When you run `calculate_medication_dose`, the system handles complex mg/kg math, giving you a reliable dose range immediately.
- Save time browsing drugs. Use `list_available_medications` to see every drug supported by the calculator at a glance, eliminating guesswork.
- Verify standards instantly. Before calculating, run `get_dosage_range` to confirm the correct therapeutic threshold for any given medication, ensuring compliance with veterinary guidelines.
- Focus on care, not math. By automating dose calculations, you keep your attention on the pet and not on cross-referencing drug formularies.
- Streamlined workflow. You can chain these tools together within a single query to get from listing drugs to final dosage in seconds.

## How It Works

The bottom line is, your AI agent handles the multi-step process of checking standards and performing the math in one sequence.

1. First, tell your agent which drug you need. The system uses `list_available_medications` to confirm it's supported.
2. Next, if required, the tool checks the established guidelines using `get_dosage_range` to verify the correct mg/kg threshold for that specific medication.
3. Finally, run the calculation by providing the pet’s weight and drug name; this executes `calculate_medication_dose`, giving you the final dose range.

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How does the Pet Medication Dose Calculator determine the correct dosage for my pet?**
It calculates doses based on your input weight in kilograms and established, hardcoded veterinary standards. This ensures the estimate is accurate and scaled specifically to the animal's body mass.

**Can this MCP help me check if a drug I need is supported?**
Yes. The calculator includes a function that lists every medication it supports, so you can quickly confirm if a drug is available for calculation before proceeding with the dose estimate.

**Is this tool safe to use in a real veterinary setting?**
It provides an advisory estimate based on current standards. However, because it's calculating medication doses, you must always have a licensed veterinarian review and approve the final dosage before administering any treatment.

**What kind of information does the calculator need from me?**
You only need two pieces of information: the pet’s weight in kilograms (kg) and the specific name of the medication you are interested in.

**Does this Pet Medication Dose Calculator handle different types of animals?**
It calculates based on general veterinary standards, requiring accurate input for the animal's body weight to ensure the dosage is correctly scaled regardless of species differences.
