mgkgdía

mgkgdía is a nonstandard concatenation of the dosing notation mg/kg/day, commonly used in pharmacology to express a drug dose normalized to body weight per 24 hours. In Spanish-language texts, the standard form is mg/kg/día. The shorthand mgkgdía may appear in informal writing or search queries where punctuation is omitted. It denotes the same concept: the amount of drug given per kilogram of patient body weight each day.

The purpose of mg/kg/day is to tailor dosing across patients of different sizes. The per-kilogram dose is obtained by dividing the total daily dose by body weight. For example, a daily dose of 350 mg for a 50 kg patient equals 7.0 mg/kg/day (350 ÷ 50). Conversely, a prescribed 10 mg/kg/day for a 15 kg child equals a total daily dose of 150 mg. In practice, the dosing may be given in single or divided administrations depending on the medication’s pharmacokinetics and the clinical setting.

Notes and conventions: mg/kg/day is not an SI unit, and proper notation typically uses mg/kg/day or mg/kg/día in Spanish-language materials. The exact dose, frequency, and duration should be determined from authoritative guidelines and tailored to factors such as age, renal or hepatic function, and drug-specific pharmacodynamics. The term mgkgdía is essentially a typographical variant of the standard mg/kg/day notation.
