My granddaughter was given amoxicillin 400mg/5ml susp. and I was informed that she should take 10 ml twice a day. She is 4 years old and weighs 42lbs. Is this dosage correct for her? Thank you.

The dr prescribed my daughter 400mg of amoxicillin (9mL 2 times per day). My daughter is 4 and weighs 35lbs... This has to be too much right? Seems unreal... She has never been prescribed this much.

Hello, Maria! How is the little lady?

What dosage has her dentist instructed her to take? The dosage can vary, depending on the type and severity of the infection.

Does she have a bad tooth?

You should follow their instructions, as provided, to properly eradicate the infection. This medication may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea.
