Can an adult take a double dosage of children's benylin (dextromethorphan) night time cough or more?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Check w/ chemist/MD: Be aware that the dosing of medications that adult or children can take for similar conditions are not always intuitive. Taking double a pediatric dose or mare may cause you to inadvertently overdose yourself. Best to check with your chemist or doctor.
