Fever & pain medicine
Children's medicine dose helper
Doses are set by weight, not age. Always check the label on your bottle and confirm the dose with your pediatrician or pharmacist.
Safety first: this is a reference chart, not a prescription. Confirm every dose with your child's doctor or pharmacist. For a baby under 3 months with a temperature of 100.4°F (38°C) or higher, call the doctor right away instead of giving medicine.
This tool is for general information and education only. It does not replace advice from your child's pediatrician, who knows your child's full history. Reviewed by a pediatrician.
