Patient's question:
The baby is ten months old and has a cough. They are taking Head Gun Acrylic and Fei Li Ke. The baby takes four-fourths of Head Gun Acrylic each time. Is it too much? (The baby weighs 22 pounds) They use 70-degree water to soak it, is the water too hot and will it interfere with the efficacy?Doctor's answer:
This Cefixime Granules for Oral Suspension, one bag containing 0.125 grams, for a ten-month-old baby weighing 11 kilograms, take four-fifths of a bag at a time, which is 0.1 grams (7.5~15 milligrams per kilogram of body weight), twice a day orally. This dosage is not very high, but do not use 70-degree hot water to mix it, as it will interfere with the drug's efficacy. It is necessary to use lukewarm water that is not ice-cold (around 40 degrees Celsius). Wishing the baby a speedy recovery.
