Hello,

The PDR website sates that for adults the FDA-approved labeling recommends 150 to 200 mg/kg/day IV/IM divided every 3 to 4 hours. While the product labeling does not recommend a maximum dose, guidelines note 12 g/day IV for serious infections.

For upper respiratory tract infections and lower respiratory tract infections 250 to 500 mg IV/IM every 6 hours for patients weighing 40 kg or more and 25 to 50 mg/kg/day IV/IM divided every 6 to 8 hours for those weighing less than 40 kg is the FDA-approved dosage.

There are other dosages recommended by the FDA found on the website linked below.

[1] Ampicillin Trihydrate Dosages

I hope this information helps.
