A member asked:
Prescription says "take 2.5 ml by mouth daily as needed for allergy symptoms ". does this mean i can only give it once a day? or can i give it more than once a day? if so, how many times can i give it?

The prescription indicates the maximum amount recommended, but likely you could divide the dose into smaller amounts and take more than once a day. However, contact your pediatrician and discuss the best approach to alleviate symptoms.

When the medication is prescribed daily as needed, it means once a day as needed
