Zusammenfassung:The application relates to devices and methods for determining an administration regimen of a drug to a subject. Determining an administration regimen for a subject comprises computing the amount of drug to be administered to the subject per elemental period of time, and determining and evaluating combinations of at least two dosage forms that can be used to administered the amount of drug, against at least two different criteria. The methods of the invention find applications in the selection of administration regimen for drugs that are available in multiple dosage forms, and especially drugs that are administered routinely over prolonged periods, such as e.g. in the routine prophylaxis of haemophilia.
