My 11 year old would not take crocin tablet. So have given her 11 ml of crocin ds. Her weight is about 35 kg. Is this the right dosage? Also she trembles a lot at the onset of fever. But the trembling stops in a few mins after giving crocin. Is it normal?
Hi.... you have given the right dosage of Cronin DS suspension for your child. Trembling and shivering during high fever is also very common, do not worry about this. Paracetamol can be given in the dose of 15\u00a0mg/kg/dose (maximum ceiling dose of 650\u00a0mg) every 4-6th hourly that too only if fever is more than 100F. I suggest not using combination medicines for fever, especially with Paracetamol. Regards -
