How It Works
Estimated BAC%=max(0,alcohol grams/(body weight kg×distribution factor×10)−elimination rate×hours).
Assumes the entered dose is fully absorbed at model time zero; real absorption, body-water distribution and elimination vary substantially.
Scope and Limitations
- Never use this estimate to decide whether to drive, operate machinery, meet a legal limit or determine that alcohol has cleared. It is not a breath or blood test.
