Online calculator for the dose of paracetamol and ibuprofen in children

With the beginning of the school year and the normal drop in temperatures, viruses have not taken long to appear in homes with children. To combat fever and discomfort, in many cases parents administer paretamol or ibuprofen following the advice of the pediatrician but do we know in what dose ?. Sometimes we forget the pediatrician's indications, we find the calculation convoluted following the medicine's leaflet or we have directly lost it.

Actually, calculating the dosage of paracetamol or ibuprofen based on the weight of our child is simple but now we have the possibility to use a online calculator That will make our operation much easier.

My Pediatrician Online has created a simple calculator for 2% ibuprofen preparations (such as the well-known Dalsy) and for paracetamol preparations of 100 mg per ml (well known as Apiretal).

We will only have to enter the weight of our child in kilos and by pressing the button we will get the dose to administer every 6-8 hours.

Together with both tools we will find, in addition, very interesting advice on how and when to use both medicines, because as we always indicate from Babies and More, it is important to know when to use the anti-thermic drugs and not abuse them.
