How does the Creatinine Clearance work?

CrCl = [(140−Age) × Weight(kg)] / (72 × Serum creatinine mg/dL) Then: Multiply by 0.85 for females Then: Uses actual body weight; in obesity, use ideal body weight or adjusted body weight Then: Important for dosing: aminoglycosides, vancomycin, metformin, direct oral anticoagulants.

Can you give an example of how to use the Creatinine Clearance?

Example: Input Male age 65 · weight 75kg · creatinine 1.3mg/dL gives a result of CrCl = (140−65)×75/(72×1.3) = 60.1 mL/min (Requires dose adjustment for many drugs).

Is the Creatinine Clearance free to use?

🩺Creatinine Clearance (Cockcroft-Gault)

Age

Weight (kg)

Serum creatinine (mg/dL)

Creatinine clearance (CrCl) estimated by the Cockcroft-Gault equation is used for drug dosing (especially renally-cleared medications), whereas eGFR is used for CKD staging. They give similar but not identical values.

Did You Know?

Cockcroft-Gault (1976) was derived from 249 patients — a tiny sample by modern standards. Yet it remains the standard for drug dosing 50 years later because it has been extensively validated.
