Running nose and sneezing

2024-10-31 07:09:24
Hi My daughter 5 y 3m old is having severe running nose and sneezing since yesterday evening.She was prescribed cetirizine by her doctor and dosage given was 5ml (5mg/5ml) twice a day but our general physician said dosage should be 2.5ml (5mg/5ml) twice a day.I trust both so I am confused.Her weight is 18kg. Need help with right dosage.
