The son weighs 13.5 kg, the doctor prescribed him a dose of 2.5 ml x 2. The leaflet shows that this is probably too large a dose. Can I safely give the child the medicine.

You did not include the name of the drug in your question. If your question is about Erdomed, which is tagged, please read on. The usual recommended dosage of Erdomed suspension for children is 10 mg/kg.c in 2 divided doses. This means that for your son, according to the leaflet, about 2 ml 2 times a day should be recommended. The maximum dose of Erdomed for children is not given. Based on the patient's medical history and condition, the doctor may recommend a different (from the one recorded in the leaflet) dosage of the drug. In case of doubt about the recommended dosage, I encourage you to consult your doctor: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/27510/erdomed-proszek-do-wytworzenia-zawiesiny/ulotka/128413
