If you are going to give it every 4 hrs around the clock, then I go with 10 :) (But I definitely appreciate that others have a more conservative approach). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tylenol-dosing#post-811763 Mon, 27 May 2013 20:39:01 +0000 JoyfulKiwi 811763@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We've used that chart before with no problems. All that math up there makes my head hurt :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tylenol-dosing#post-811749 Mon, 27 May 2013 20:34:22 +0000 Katrocap 811749@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My DS is 19 lbs and almost 5 months. Pediatrician said 2.5 ml of baby Tylenol every 4-6 hours. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tylenol-dosing#post-811681 Mon, 27 May 2013 20:00:31 +0000 QBbride 811681@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We dose 15mg/kg too :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tylenol-dosing#post-811593 Mon, 27 May 2013 19:11:27 +0000 Ash 811593@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@wheres_c: 15mg/kg would be 0.68ml... but at the hospital where I work, we dose 10mg/kg. :) a general dose uses the range of 10-15mg/kg. So you can actually do a smaller dose if you want. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tylenol-dosing#post-811574 Mon, 27 May 2013 19:04:28 +0000 wheres_c 811574@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Jacks: you're awesome. It's infant. 160mg/ml. He fell asleep finally but will give him some if he wakes up upset. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tylenol-dosing#post-811571 Mon, 27 May 2013 19:02:34 +0000 oliviaoblivia 811571@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Jacks: I love having you here. If you ever need a cheerleader just ask. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tylenol-dosing#post-811566 Mon, 27 May 2013 18:59:51 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 811566@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You dose 15 mg/kg. 16 lbs is 7.2 kg. 7.2 x 15= 109 mg. Probably best to round to 100 mg. Are you using infant tylenol or childrens? You can figure out the mg/ml and then figure out the dose. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tylenol-dosing#post-811560 Mon, 27 May 2013 18:57:38 +0000 pinkcupcake 811560@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Does your insurance have a nurses hotline you can call? I've found them to be very helpful with questions like these! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tylenol-dosing#post-811554 Mon, 27 May 2013 18:54:38 +0000 wheres_c 811554@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Baby is screaming in pain from teething.
