What is the dosage by weight for equate children's cough liquid?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not recommended: Cough and cold meds are not usually recommended for children under 4 years old. This is because they may have more serious side effects and there is no proven benefit from most of them. Give your child plenty of clear fluids, run a cool mist humidifier, suction her nose with saline and a bulb syringe. If she has a fever >101 or other symptoms, see her doctor.
