Children's Medication Dosage

Administering medications to children requires careful consideration of their age, weight, and the specific medication being used.

​

Dosing guidelines for children are generally different from those for adults because children's bodies metabolize drugs differently, and their needs vary as they grow.

​

​Before administering any medication, double-check the dosage and confirm that you have the correct medication prescribed for your child. This step helps prevent medication errors.
