A member asked:

Can i give my 2 year old son (23lbs) 5ml of liquid claritin in the morning and 5ml zyertec before bed. allergies (tree pollen) have been very bad ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Focus on Zyrtec: Zyrtec is a very effective antihistamine. Starting dose of zyrtec for age and weight is 2.5 ml once daily. Maximum dose of Zyrtec for age and weight is 5 ml once daily or 2.5 ml twice a day. Claritin is less effective- dosage is 5 ml once daily.
