How to take
How much of this product to take

The amount below is the adult regimen for this product, in whole tablets or capsules, worked out from every sourced rule on file at once and naming the ingredient that decided it.

A dose by weight needs a form it can be measured out of — a syrup, a suspension, oral drops or an injection. This one is taken in whole units, so the adult regimen is what is shown.

Ask a doctor. The strength of this product is not recorded in a way that converts into tablets or millilitres, so no amount is shown. (Paracetamol)

This does not decide whether the medicine is right, or for how long. That is the prescription. What it does is turn the dose you were given into an amount of this product.

Where that comes from
Paracetamol · adults

1 g every 6 hours, or 650 mg every 4 hours instead. Never more than 4 g in 24 hours, counting every paracetamol-containing product taken by any route. — every 6 hours

Paracetamol · children

15 mg/kg every 6 hours, up to 75 mg/kg in 24 hours. The label also allows 12.5 mg/kg every 4 hours instead; it does not allow the larger dose at the shorter interval. — every 6 hours
