Important information about how to use creatinineclearancecalculator.com safely. Please read this page before relying on any calculator result or site content.
1. Nature of the website
creatinineclearancecalculator.com is an independent educational website that publishes free, browser-based clinical calculators and explainers (for example creatinine clearance, BUN/creatinine ratio, free water deficit, and corrected calcium). The site is intended for clinicians, students, pharmacists, and informed readers who want transparent formulas and worked examples.
2. Not medical advice
Nothing on this website — including calculator outputs, interpretations, ranges, examples, FAQs, diagrams, or author commentary — is medical advice, nursing advice, pharmacy advice, diagnosis, prognosis, or a treatment recommendation.
- Do not start, stop, or change any medication based solely on this site.
- Do not use calculator results as the only basis for dosing, triage, or emergency care.
- Always confirm results with a qualified healthcare professional, institutional protocols, and current product labeling.
- If you think you have a medical emergency, call your local emergency number immediately.
3. No clinician–patient relationship
Using this website does not create a physician–patient, pharmacist–patient, or other professional care relationship with the site operator or any named reviewer (including Dr. Emily Carter, PharmD, BCPS). Content review for clarity and educational accuracy is not personalized care.
4. Accuracy and limitations of calculators
Calculators implement commonly taught published equations and unit conversions. Results depend entirely on the values you enter and on formula assumptions that may not fit every patient.
- Equations and reference ranges can vary by lab, guideline, age group, and clinical context.
- Some tools (for example albumin-corrected calcium or free-water estimates) are approximations and can disagree with gold-standard measurements.
- Critical illness, kidney disease, pregnancy, pediatrics, extremes of body composition, and acid–base disorders may require different approaches.
- We do not warrant that any result is complete, up to date, error-free, or appropriate for your situation.
5. Your responsibility
By using the site, you agree that:
- You are responsible for verifying inputs, units, and clinical applicability.
- You will not present site content as personalized medical advice to others.
