The prevalence of drug administration errors and its associated harmful effect on patient calls for a new and effective approach in minimising their occurrence in nursing drug administration activities. DruDAA is an application developed using C-Sharp programming language on Microsoft visual studio 2005. As drug calculations often appear so rigorous and daunting, DruDAA offers a simplified approach for computing required drug dosage to be administered to patients.
