Our Mission
At Perfect Dose, our mission is simple: to empower parents and caregivers with accurate, easy-to-understand guidance for giving over-the-counter (OTC) medications safely to children. We’re here to eliminate the guesswork and confusion surrounding children’s dosing—because every child deserves the right dose at the right time.

What Makes Perfect Dose Different
Most medication labels rely on age-based dosing, which can be misleading and potentially unsafe—especially for growing kids whose weight may not match age-based charts. Perfect Dose uses weight-based dosing, the gold standard in U.S. medical practice, to ensure accuracy. Developed by a board-certified emergency physician and parent, Perfect Dose delivers real, evidence-based recommendations for common medications like Tylenol (acetaminophen) and Ibuprofen, whether in liquid or chewable form.
Unlike generic charts or hard-to-read labels, Perfect Dose provides:
- Trusted, physician-approved dosing
- Profiles tailored to each of your children
- Immediate, clear instructions based on your child’s current weight and age
- Peace of mind for every parent and guardian


Our story
Perfect Dose was born in the real world—between midnight fevers and middle-of-the-night pharmacy runs. As an emergency physician and father of three growing boys, our founder saw firsthand how hard it can be for even the most attentive parents to get medication dosing right. Labels are confusing, dosing spoons get lost, and every child is different.
With medical expertise and personal parenting experience, he set out to build a tool that brings confidence to caregivers and better outcomes for kids. Perfect Dose is the result: a simple, mobile-first solution designed for everyday families, built by someone who’s been there.
