There are two special populations that require extra consideration when you are calculating medication dosages. These are pediatric (children) and geriatric (mature adult) patients. Generally speaking, pediatric patients are under the age of 18, and geriatric patients are 65 and over. Explain the factors impacting dosing and medication administration to these patients. Additionally, explain how a patient's weight influences their dosage.
