I'm not sure if I'm interpreting the dosage correctly. Did the doctor recommend giving 2 x 8 ml or 2 x 4 ml (a total of 8 ml per day)? The antibiotic Amoksiklav can be administered at a body weight of about 19 kg in different amounts depending on the type of infection. The smallest dose is 6 ml / day (2x3ml) and the largest is about 10 ml / day (2x5 ml). In special cases, in children over 2 years of age, the doctor may recommend an increase in the dose to 16 ml / day (2x8ml). Such situations include inflammation of the inner ear and infections of the lower respiratory tract. I attach a leaflet to the drug Amoksiklav: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/4789/amoksiklav-400-mg-57-mg-proszek-do-wytworzenia-zawiesiny/ulotka I encourage you to read the article: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/jak-bezstresowo-podac-lek-dziecku
