i´m a general surgeon.\n2400mg of amoxicillin is a lot. a 84 pound kid is considered an adult for that kind of drug. in my opinion 500mg three times a day would be enough.

If you want to treat her with no side effects please give her CALCAREA PHOS 30 its a tissue salt and will make her feel 100% better and with absolutely no harmful effects what so ever !\nGod Bless you and Your little Girl ! Amen

Did you take an oral temp?  96 is low normal for a five year old. I'd be more concerned with the vomiting. Young children dehydrate much faster than adults.  Take her to your ped doctor today.

70 mg/dl - 115 mg/dl is considered normal to our hospital

ok can i get some more info although i will try to answer this for you without it. Has she had a bowel movement recently before the citrate? if you say no then the hard swelling could be really bad. And she needs to be seen now. If her bowels explode it will kill a person in 48 hours....... This is nothing to play with..........If you dont believe me call your local pharmacist or hospital they will confirm.......Her large intestine could be knotted and this she needs to be seen for also. Dont wait til doctors hours take her to the er. If they are twisted or knotted and she pushes too hard it will explode.....

the max dose of acetamenophin per day is 4.5 gm or 4500 mg.  Anything over this is harmful to the liver.  But do tell her to get help for her behavior!  It's not right for her to manipulate others feelings with threats of suicide!

Why not see adoctor and ask if there is any other med that will last thru the day...Good luck

I really hope that you are not serious. Go back to the doc and have him place your son on a generic antibiotic much cheaper.

If I were you, I'd be very careful and dose with 1/3 to 1/4 of the adult dose. In future, you should consider getting the children's formulation, which gives you instructions on how to dose by weight.

I think it depends on what you are taking. Talk to your doctor.

i am not a doctor, but i would say you should Not.  call Patient First near you, or a hospital or some kind of nurse helpline and ask a nurse.  Or you could even call the poison control number and ask before giving the medicine to your child.

This person has nothing to gain by taking more than prescribed. I wouldn't go looking for sysmptoms, I see a symptom, the abuse, and it is a clear sign she needs to get honest with her doctor if she really wants to get better.

Four grams a day for 7 days would probably be ok.  If your symptoms are not gone by then, or if you need more pain meds, see a doctor.
