Welcome

The Swiss Database for Dosing Medicinal Products in Pediatrics (SwissPedDose) aims to increase the safety of the use of drugs in children and newborns. Medical professionals in the paediatric sector have access to dosage recommendations that have been developed in a standardised harmonisation process throughout Switzerland.

Help ensure safe medication dosing for children

Since January 2026, SwissPedDose is no longer financially supported by the Federal Office of Public Health (FOPH) and is therefore dependent on donations.

Terms of use

The data and referenced content published in the SwissPedDose database (here-in after referred to as ‘information’) are intended exclusively for medical professionals. The information can be amended or deleted by SwissPedDose at any time without further notice.

SwissPedDose assumes no liability for the accuracy and completeness of the information, even though it processes the information with the greatest care and always keeps it up to date. This also applies to harm resulting from the use of the published information. Since the information is continuously revised, we recommend not to print and further process it (e.g. for hospital specific booklets).

We recommend the use of our XML file for the integration of our data into external systems. This ensures the recognition of changes.

SwissPedDose assumes no liability for the error-free operation of the database, in particular for misuse by unauthorised third parties or for the failure or non-availability of the database due to technical issues.

The information on dosages published in the database is to be understood as recommendations. The actual prescription and use of a medicinal product is the sole responsibility of the attending physician. He or she must ensure that an appropriate medication or dosage is determined for the patient in each individual case, taking into account the duty of care.

Preparations on the market:
SwissPedDose contains a list of available commercial products. You will find this list under the menu item ‘Products’ below the dosage recommendations. Priority is given to preparations that are sold in Switzerland at the time of the search. These product overviews do not claim to be correct or complete. Despite extensive research, it is possible that a commercial preparation that would also be suitable for use in children is not listed.
