Regardless of what method you use, it is important to know how to calculate the correct IV drip rate! The formula for this calculation is total volume (in mL) divided by time (in min), multiplied by the drop factor (in gtt/mL), which equals the drip rate in gtt/min. Use this calculator to help you quickly determine any IV drip rate:
