It’s been a long time since we’ve used infant tylenol in this house. once we get to a certain weight, we go right to Children’s Tylenol. I think on Infant Tylenol, there is a chart that has the dose per baby’s age/weight. Our pedi always said to go by baby’s weight. So if Chance is 19 lbs for example, then go by the dose on that chart for 19 lbs. I think you can do it every 4-6 hrs, but double and triple check that box.

The ask Dr Sears website also has a ‘medicine cabinet’ where you can look up dosages for all weights and ages.

We wound up relying on motrin for teething because it lasts longer and seemed to work better.

Hope he feels better soon!

motrin is good for teething, but it can be harsh on some of these sensitive tummies- but anyway

is amazing! look for the button ‘Medicine Cabinet’ and you can look up the dosing for tylenol, benedryl and other medications.

if you have a moment after finding what you’re looking for, browse around the site because it has GREAT INFO to help you!

The tylenol bottle and or box will tell you how much to give based on wt. You can give tylenol every 4-6 hrs and motrin is given every 6-8hrs if you use that.
