Calcium Chloride for Beta-blocker / calcium-channel-blocker overdose
Adult dosing has a median of 1000 mg across 91 published protocols, with the middle half between 1000 and 1000.
Includes 1 agency outside the US.
Doses far off from what other protocols give are likely misreads, so they are left out until checked. How that works.

Values in mg. One value per source (that source's median), so a document listing a medication five times still gets one vote.
