Is This Dosage Correct I Gave 5ml T-minic Syrup To My 1.5 Year Daughter ?
Question: Hi, I gave 5ml t-minic syrup to my 1.5 year old daughter... She is 10kg...is this dosage correct
Brief Answer:
Give 2.5ml 3 times daily
Detailed Answer:
Hi ,
I guess she is suffering from cold, and there is no fever or cough.
T-minic syrup contains 2mg CPM and 5mg phenyephrine/5ml. For a 1.5 years old, 2.5ml would be sufficient, and you can give 3 times daily for 3-5 days.
A single dose of 5ml will not cause any harm to her apart from a slight sleepiness for a while- no need to worry.
I hope this answer will help
