What can i do if my son has a broken wrist how much vicodine can i give him hes 12 and weighs 125 pounds?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
5-7 mg every 4 hrs: Dose is based on weight. If you have liquid form you can give two or three teaspoons every 4-6 hours. If you have the 5/500 pills you should give no more than 8 per day total. I suggest one pill every 4 hours to begin, and increase to two pills every 4-6 hours if needed.
