About this creatinine clearance calculator

Cockcroft-Gault (1976): CrCl = (140 − age) × weight kg ÷ (72 × serum creatinine mg/dL), multiplied by 0.85 for women. A 60-year-old man weighing 72 kg with creatinine 1.0 gets (80 × 72) ÷ 72 = 80 mL/min. It is still the standard for adjusting drug doses; labs report eGFR (CKD-EPI) for staging kidney disease.

FAQ

Common questions

Short answers for the questions people usually have before trying a utility like this.

Is creatinine clearance the same as eGFR?

No. Both estimate kidney filtration, but eGFR (CKD-EPI 2021) is normalized to 1.73 m² of body surface and used for staging, while Cockcroft-Gault gives mL/min for the actual patient and is used in drug labels.

Which weight goes into Cockcroft-Gault?

The original used actual weight. For obese patients many pharmacists use adjusted body weight instead, which our Adjusted Body Weight Calculator gives.
