Question
What are the functions of the pediatric oral liquid?
Answer
The oral liquid has the effects of tonifying yin and restraining Yang, calming the spirit, and enhancing intelligence. It is often used to treat symptoms of hyperactivity in children, including attention deficits, hyperactivity, feelings of guilt, and learning difficulties. It is recommended to undergo a thorough check-up at a hospital before use and to follow the doctor’s instructions. Many drugs should not be used casually, even for oral liquids with health benefits, especially for children. The recommended dosage is half a packet for children aged 3-5, twice a day; one packet for children aged 6-14, twice a day; and one packet for children aged 14 and above, three times a day. Specific usage should be according to medical advice.
