What dose of Amotaks in suspension is suitable for a child weighing 11 kilograms?

Amotaxis, which contains amoxicillin, is dosed based on your body weight. For children weighing less than 40 kg, the usual recommended dose is between 40 mg and 90 mg for every kilogram of body weight administered in 2 - 3 divided doses. The maximum recommended dose should not exceed 100 mg of amoxicillin per kilogram of body weight per day: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/4816/amotaks-granulat-do-wytworzenia-zawiesiny/apteki Amotaks should be used as directed by your doctor, throughout the prescribed duration of therapy. Do not shorten or extend the time of prescribed antibiotic therapy yourself.

To @Oliwia:

No, the dose of Amotaks recommended by your doctor is not too high. Please remember that the doctor selects the dose not only according to body weight or age, but above all to the type and severity of the infection, the susceptibility of the microorganism and the patient's general health.

The recommended dose of Amotaxis for children weighing less than 40 kg is typically between 40 mg and 90 mg for each kilogram of body weight, given in 2 - 3 divided doses. The maximum recommended dose should not exceed 100 mg amoxicillin per kilogram of body weight per day. For more information, see the package leaflet:

If you still have any doubts, I encourage you to consult your doctor again. It is the doctor who decides on the possible treatment of the patient, m.in. on the basis of the patient's medical history and previous response to treatment. Only the doctor can decide whether to change the pharmacotherapy. If you do not have the opportunity to consult your doctor, you can use the teleconsultation here:

Hello
The son has pneumonia and weighs 12 kg. He was prescribed amotaxis 500mg/5ml dosage 2x5.4ml is that not too high?

To @Ewel:

When it comes to dosing, you should follow the information given to you by your doctor - the amount of antibiotic dose depends not only on body weight or age, but also on the type and severity of the infection, the sensitivity of the microorganism causing the infection and the general health of the patient.

Too little of an antibiotic can be ineffective and contribute to the development of bacterial resistance, while too much can be harmful and cause side effects.

If you are unable to contact the doctor who prescribed this antibiotic, you can use the teleconsultation:

Hello I have a question a child of 10 years old and weighs 44kg how should I get a dose of Amotax?

Yes, exactly. You understand very well. That is the right thing to do.

Hello, What does the dosage of 2x10 ml orally every 12 h mean? So I have to give 10ml and 12 hours later another 10ml?

For @Mama29: It is not recommended to divide Amotaks tablets to obtain a dose suitable for a 2-year-old child. For children, preparations in the form of granules for suspension are suitable, issued on the basis of a valid medical prescription: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/4816/amotaks-granulat-do-wytworzenia-zawiesiny/apteki In order to obtain a prescription, you can use the teleadvice offered, m.in. by the Gdziepolek.pl portal: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/telekonsultacja During the telecounseling, the doctor will determine the dosage method appropriate for your child.

Amotaks 1g how to divide a tablet for a 2 year old weighing 11kg

For @Wasyl: The dose of antibiotic should be selected by the doctor who examined the child. The dosage depends, m.in. on the type of infection.

Son 3 years I weigh 13 kg what dose thank you

To @Kinga: This is the right dose for a child of this weight.

Son 7 years, 44 kg got a dose of amotaks 750 2 times a day or not too much?

For @Milena: Usually, the daily dose is between 40-90 mg / kg body weight. Assuming that the child would take the lowest effective dose of the drug, i.e. 40 mg / kg body weight per day - he should take 40*34 = 1360 mg of the drug per day - that is / 2 = 680 mg at a time - which means 6.8 ml of the drug. It is therefore possible that the drug will not work properly. It is worth discussing with the pediatrician how to dose the drug.

Hi my son has pharyngitis weighs 34 kg and got the antibiotic Amotaxi 500mg /5ml.mam give him 2 times a day for 5 ml.is it not enough?

For @Wera: The duration of treatment depends m.in on the patient's condition and should be determined by the doctor

Hello, the daughter is prescribed the drug amotaxi 0.5g/5ml 1 op 60 ml 2x2 ml per day . How many days should I give the medicine?

This record means 5 ml 2 x per day for 7 days. If you do not notice any improvement during this time, you should go to a control visit to the doctor.

Hello. I have amotaxi (suspension) prescribed for my less than 4-year-old daughter. It weighs 17 kg. He has a problem with the upper respiratory tract, a runny nose plus a hard-to-knock high fever. Please help me decipher the dosage (I attach a photo). For 7 days, but what dose per day? I was not told whether to take the antibiotic once or twice a day. I will mention that this is the first antibiotic I administered myself. Thank you in advance for your help and best regards.

To @emilia: As much as has been prescribed by a doctor. The dosage of the drug depends, m.in, on the disease entity.

How much to give a child the antibiotic amotaxi if he weighs 16.5 kg

Do @Mona i @Dzasta:

Lekarz na podstawie stanu klinicznego dziecka dobiera odpowiednią dawkę leku Amotaks dla dziecka. Lek należy stosować zgodnie ze wskazaniami lekarza. Nie należy samodzielnie rozpoczynać kuracji lekiem Amotaks.

Ile mam podac amotaksu dxuecko o wadze 17 kg.

Witam A jaka dawka leku amotaks będzie odpowiednia dla mojej córki która ma 9 miesięcy i waży 7 kg

Do @Joanna: Dawki leku Amotaks w zawiesinie są ustalane w zależności od masy ciała dziecka (wyrażonej w kilogramach) przez lekarza. Zawiesinę podaje się odmierzając objętość w mililitrach. Amotaks to granulat - po dodaniu wody zgodnie z instrukcją podaną w ulotce powstaje jednorodna zawiesina (do przechowywania w lodówce), którą odmierza się dołączoną do opakowania łyżeczką miarową lub dozownikiem strzykawkowym. Z podanego przez Panią zapisu 4-0-4 w mojej ocenie wynikałoby, że chodzi najprawdopodobniej o podanie 4 ml zawiesiny rano i 4 ml wieczorem. Wątpliwości można rozstrzygnąć kontaktując się z lekarzem lub z apteką, która wydała Pani lek - dawkowanie powinno znajdować się także na recepcie.

Witam, dziś z córką dostałyśmy Amotaks w zawiesinie. Lekarz na napisał dziwny dla mnie plan podawania 4-0-4 . Dodam że córka ma 21 miesięcy i waży 10,5 kg
