Child Feeling Better After Having Warclav 625 For Tonsillitis And Fever. How Long To Continue?
My daughter of 8 yrs+ has been prescribed Warclav 625 @ 1/2 tablet thrice daily for 6 days. She was running fever and doctor diagnosed tonsilitis. Is this the minimum dose? She has taken 4 doses in little over 1 day and has no fever and is 80 to 90% fine. Should she continue taking the medicine for all 6 days?

Hai..all doses for children are based on weight and not on age. I would like to know her weight. One suggestion is that Amoxycillin Clavulenate or Warclav can be given twice a day if given at 40mg/kg/day of Amoxycillin in the combination. Happy to help anytime. If you are happy with my reply, kindly rate it.
