Calculate creatinine clearance (CrCl) using the Cockcroft-Gault equation from age, weight, sex, and serum creatinine. Used for renal drug dosing.
The Cockcroft-Gault equation estimates creatinine clearance (CrCl) from age, weight, sex, and serum creatinine. It is the standard tool for renal drug dosing: CrCl ≥ 60 mL/min usually needs no adjustment, 30–59 mild adjustment, 15–29 moderate adjustment, and < 15 mL/min significant adjustment or avoidance.
Use actual body weight unless the patient is obese, in which case ideal or adjusted body weight is preferred. For CKD staging, the CKD-EPI equation is generally preferred over Cockcroft-Gault. This estimate is a screening tool — interpret alongside clinical context, not as a substitute for measured clearance.
