Doing the math: A simple approach to topical timolol dosing for infantile hemangiomas.

Renata Dalla Costa1, Brea Prindaville2,3, Karen Wiss2,3.   

Abstract

Topical timolol maleate has recently gained popularity as a treatment for superficial infantile hemangiomas, but calculating a safe dose of timolol can be time consuming, which may limit the medication's use in fast-paced clinical environments. This report offers a simplified calculation of the maximum daily safe dosage as 1 drop of medication per kilogram of body weight.
