Ridkof-LS drops dose for 7 month old bby
My 7 months old baby has been diagnosed with pneumonia and has cough and cold. He has been recommended Ridkof-LS drops 8 drops thrice A day while the other doctor has prescribed 2.5 ml of the drop thrice a day. Similarly, solvin cold drops has also been prescribed by the doctor 8 drops thrice a day while the other doctor has prescribed the same drop 2.5 ml thrice a day. I am extremely confused because 2.5 ml counts to 50 drops while the 1st doctor has prescribed only 8 drops. Please help me , it's urgent. Thank you.

8 drops is the correct dose for drops. Don't give 2.5 ml of drops. That is too much
