What dose of Ospamox 500 mg/5 ml should be given to a 4-year-old child weighing 16 kg?

The dosage of Ospamox depends on the condition for which the antibiotic is to be used. Usually, in diseases such as, m.in, acute sinusitis, acute otitis media, community-acquired pneumonia in a child weighing 16 kg, 3.2 ml of Ospamox 500 mg / 5 ml per day (in one dose, once every 24 hours) is used. In acute streptococcal tonsillitis and pharyngitis, a higher dose may be necessary, up to 6.4 ml per day. If you are not sure what dosage regimen should be used for your child, it is worth, for example, consulting the pharmacy where you used to carry out your prescription. The dosage method is written on the prescription or consult the pediatrician again.
