| Children's liquid is what should be given. I'm not sure there is such a thing as baby Benadryl.

Phantom Queen Morrigan Donating Member | liquid children's benadryl is what you should get. make sure the only active ingredient is Diphenhydramine HCl. the dose is 1mg per 1lb of body weight. So a 5 pound dog gets 5mg of benadryl.

Just buy the plain regular old Children's Benadryl. Active ingredient is Diphenhyramine HCL only. Children's Benadryl Dye-Free Allergy Liquid | DERMAdoctor

| No tylenol at all ever. None that say just Children's Benadryl with the active ingredient that kalina82 mentioned?

| I'm a pharmacist so I get asked this question all the time by people looking for baby benadryl. There is no such thing as baby benadryl. The only oral liquid form of diphenhydramine is labeled as children's benadryl and has a concentration of 12.5mg/5mL.

| Look closer at the one that says, "Benadryl" and then "Allergy" underneath it. What are the active ingredients?

| Yes, it will probably say, "Benadryl Allergy." That is the one we use but we don't get dye free.

Phantom Queen Morrigan Donating Member | bchgirl posted this somewhere else: "Here's the benedryl dosage formula... Your dogs body weight times 5 divided by 12.5 = dose in cc/ml To figure out your dogs body weight you have to convert ounces to pounds... EX: a dog that weighs 4 pounds 10 ounces would weigh 4.625 pounds you must take the 10 ounces and divide by 16 then add the 4 pounds... 10 divided by 16 = .625 + 4 =4.625 4.625 X 5 divided by 12.5 =1.85 cc/ml" So your dog is 9lbs. 9 x 5= 45 45 divided by 12.5 = 3.6ml
