convertimate Infusion rate

Milliliters per hour to drops per minute

Type a value in mL/h to get it in gtt/min instantly.

41.67gtt/min

That's about the same as a standard infusion. A one-liter bag would last about 8 hours.

What it means

How fast is it running?

Information only, not clinical guidance. Gravity lines drift as the bag empties and the patient moves, so a counted rate needs rechecking.

The math

How to convert mL/h to gtt/min

The drop factor connects the two: drops/min = mL/h × drops per mL ÷ 60. The figures below use the giving set selected above.

Example: 125 mL/h = 41.6667 gtt/min.

The table below is for Standard adult set (20 drops/mL).
