Help & answers

Lares Pecoris is a veterinary reference tool — it reads international and national guidelines, remembers them, cites them when you ask. It is not a clinical decision support tool and does not substitute the veterinarian's judgment.

Three pillars:

• Reference — answers grounded in guidelines (WSAVA, ESCCAP, AAHA, AAEP, RO + EU legislation).
• Didactic studies — learning through anonymized real cases.
• Consensus — the shared voice of veterinary medicine; no diagnoses, only what the guidelines say.

Every answer carries its source alongside — which guideline, which article, which edition. If a question has no support in the corpus, Lares says it does not know.

On dosing cards (in the calculator):

• The "Source:" line shows the title of the document the rule comes from.
• "Route", "Frequency", "Duration" — taken verbatim from the guideline or product SPC.
• The explicit formula (italic, blue) shows exactly how the dose was calculated.

Red appears exclusively in warnings — never as decoration. Species-specific dosing, contraindications, drug interactions are marked in visible red.

The calculator at /calculator is public: 5 calculations per device with no account, 5 with a free account, and unlimited on paid plans. How to use it:

1. Pick the drug from the category-grouped list (Antibiotics, NSAIDs, Anesthetics...).
2. Pick the species (or "All species" to see everything).
3. Enter the body weight in kg.
4. Each rule card shows the calculated dose + the explicit formula.

Unit types covered:

• mg/kg, mcg/kg — per-kg dose multiplied by weight.
• mcg/m² (BSA) — computes Meeh-Rubner body surface area, then total dose.
• ml — shows volume; if concentration is known, computes mg equivalent.
• Fixed dose — weight-independent, shown as-is.
• In-water / in-feed — for herd species (pigs, poultry), computes water (mg/L) or feed (mg/kg feed) concentration.

Contraindications and drug interactions appear under the result, on every plan. For food-chain animals the card shows the withdrawal time when it is recorded; when it is not, the card says so in red and the value has to come from the product SPC.

The clinical decision remains yours. Always verify the dose for the specific species.

Community is the veterinarians' forum inside Lares. It opens from the app menu after signing in, on veterinarian accounts; owner accounts have no access.

Reading and posting are included in every plan, including Free. The forum is for discussion between colleagues: do not post anything that identifies an owner or an animal.
