My daughter is 4.5 year old weight 15.5 kg from past 2 days she is suffering from heavy cold, cough and chest congestion .
I am giving her Ibugesic plus 5 ml as and when she is getting fever more than 100 and since yesterday I started to give her antibiotics--Cetrizine syrup 3 ml twice a day that is in total 6 ml/day.
I want to know if I am giving correct dose of Cetrizine and Ibugesic or not as per her age and weight.Pleaae confirm.
P.S - I stay out of India and I got doctor's appointment for Monday and till then I can't wait so I have started to give her medicine on my own whatever I have brought from India .
