The dosage of the drug is good. In upper and lower respiratory tract infections, otitis media, skin and soft tissue infections, doses of 10 mg/kg body weight once a day are used. So for a weight of 14.5 kg, the volume of suspension will be just 3.5 ml. (The antibiotic has a concentration of 200 mg / 5 ml, i.e. 140 mg is in 3.5 ml) We give the antibiotic once a day, at a fixed time. Before serving, shake the bottle well. The drug should be administered at least 1 hour before eating or 2 hours after. Please also remember to use a probiotic to rebuild your gut microbiome. It is also good to use the probiotic after antibiotic therapy, even for several weeks.
