A member asked:

Can i give my 5 month old tylenol (acetaminophen)? if so at what dose and what brand of tylenol (acetaminophen) do you recommend is best? and how do u give it to her?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: Tylenol is ok for 5 months. You can talk with your pharmacist and they will give you a chart on normal dose. If your child has some other health problem be sure and talk with the doctor. Generic tylenol is available at less cost that is acetaminophen.
