The dosage of fever reducers is typically based on the child's weight:
- Acetaminophen: The recommended dose is 10-15 mg/kg every 4-6 hours, not exceeding five doses in 24 hours. - Ibuprofen: The recommended dose is 5-10 mg/kg every 6-8 hours, not exceeding four doses in 24 hours.
It is crucial to read the medication label and consult with a healthcare provider to determine the appropriate dose for your child.
