The Creatinine Clearance (Cockcroft-Gault Equation) predicts Creatinine Clearance from serum Creatinine.
SCr (serum creatinine) = mg/dL. Why is the Cockcroft-Gault formula provided on this website? The Cockcroft-Gault (CG) formula is provided on this website for research purposes only. It should not be used for drug dosing or to estimate GFR. The best way to determine drug dosing is with the CKD-EPI Creatinine Equation (2009) or the MDRD Study.

Creatinine clearance calculator for estimating renal function (glomerular filtration rate) in adults.
Creatinine Clearance methods. Cockcroft and Gault equation utilizing the tbw (Total body weight) to calculate an estimated CrCL - Cockcroft and Gault equation: CrCl = [ (140 - age) x TBW] / (Scr x 72) (x 0.85 for females) Cockcroft and Gault equation utilizing the ibw (Ideal body weight) to calculate an estimated creatinine clearance.
The 2021 CKD-EPI equation is now the recommended standard. This version does not include race, as do the 2009 and 2012 CKD-EPI creatinine and creatinine-cystatin C equations. See here for more on our approach to addressing race and bias on MDCalc.
