Antibiotic Timing Sheet Free · Printable

Dosing intervals, infusion times, peak/trough collection windows, and renal-dose flags for 39 of the most-given IV antimicrobials (33 antibacterials + 2 antivirals + 4 antifungals). Sourced from IDSA guidelines, the 2020 ASHP/IDSA vancomycin consensus, FDA labeling, and Medscape — see references below.

⚠ Reference only — verify before administering. Doses, intervals, and infusion times vary by indication, renal/hepatic function, MIC, age/weight, and your facility's protocols. Always verify with the order, your formulary, and pharmacy. This is a study and double-check aid, not a clinical decision tool.
