Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Augmentin should be given three times a day after some food.
So give 0.75 ml syrup, dilute it in 10ml water and give it to your baby.
Do this three times a day.
So timings would be 8am in the morning after breakfast, 2pm after lunch and 9 pm after dinner.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wishing good health to your baby. Thanks.
