Code Blue is an awsome drug calculator. It is designed for rapid acquisition of medication doses in a resuscitation setting. The calculator is primarily designed for pediatric dosing based on age and weight, but it contains adult doses as well. The design allows the user to quickly see all the medications relevant to a specific task on one screen. It also includes a pediatric oriented GCS scale, and a pediatric proportional Rule of 9's calculator that calculates fluid needs based on the Parkland formula.
