The doctor recommended cefpodoxime proxetil dry suspension; what kind of assistance are you hoping to receive? An 8-month-old, 10-kilogram baby has a fever, and the doctor suggests taking cefpodoxime proxetil dry suspension. Should the baby take one-tenth of a packet or nine-tenths?
Answer
An 8-month-old child weighing 10 kilograms has been prescribed cefpodoxime proxetil dry suspension by the doctor. According to the child’s weight, the dosage and administration of this medication are as follows: Take 50 milligrams per dose (one packet contains 100 milligrams, so half a packet), twice a day, with an interval of 12 hours between doses. Additionally, if the child’s body temperature is below 38.5 degrees Celsius, they should take Methylphenidate granules. Monitor the child to drink plenty of warm water, and wish for a swift recovery.
