Doing the Calculation. The true heart of how to calculate drug dosage lies in figuring the mg/kg ratio. This is done by multiplying the base milligram dosage by the patientâs body weight in kilograms. In this way, drug manufacturers give medical personnel a base formula that allows them to individualize each dosage by the patient.
