Need some helping figuring this out... Can someone please help me make sure I have this figured correctly?
Medicine: Children’s Benadryl
Dosage: 1 mg of Benadryl per pound
Children’s Benadryl—1 teaspoon (5 mL) contains 12.5 mg, therefore
1 mL = 2.5 mg
FYI: 1 cc = 1 mL
I know---already confusing, but based on the above information, I think this is the correct dosage. Can someone look it over for me? I want to print it out and hang it on my bulletin board for emergencies.
3 pounds = 1.2 mL
4 pounds = 1.6 mL
5 pounds = 2 mL
6 pounds = 2.4 mL
7 pounds = 2.8 mL
8 pounds = 3.2 mL
9 pounds = 3.6 mL
Thanks!
