Abstract
Although it does not require advanced knowledge, drug calculation requires the following of mathematical steps, which implies more time dedicated to the task and greater possibility of error. Therefore, this article aims to understand the learning experience on drug calculation among nursing students and to propose a technological tool that would assist in the transformation of solutions in both academic and professional contexts. This is a case study. Data showed that most students considered their learning about drug calculation either poor or unsatisfactory and never used any technological tool for that purpose. It has been possible to determine that the training courses need to stimulate a continuous contact with technological tools during graduation in order to develop skills, competencies and attitudes towards the use of digital technologies in health care, minimizing the possibility of errors during drug calculation and favoring the safety of patients.
