Can Nyquil For Adults Be Given To A Child?
My daughter is almost 8 years old and was crying because she has a cold. I read on the internet I could give her 15 ml of Nyquil but now I realize it was talking about children’s NyQuil. I gave her 15 ml of adult Nyquil, half of what an adult should take, and now I am worried. She weighs almost 70lbs, will she be ok?
