medised for 3 months +??
Hi
I know there have been some threads in the past about medised but i've got baby brain still and can't remember!! Maiya is 14 weeks and i've bought some medised today as she has a bad cold. i've been using the baby vapour rub for her chest, nasal drops to clear her nose and a wedge for her cot so can sleep upright a bit more. problem is she's finding it very hard to sleep. gave her 1 x 2.5 ml of capol for the last 2 nights but doesn't seem to have helped.
Is it ok to give 2.5ml of medised?? bottle says up to 5mls but that seems a lot.also i remember something from the thread that says it shouldn't be given to babies?? why does it say 3+ months on the box??
am thinking of giving it to her before bed tonight so she might get some rest so any info etc you would be great.
thanks )

have just checked the box for you and it says "3 months to under 1 year half to one 5ml spoonful 3 -4 times a day" and "1 year to under 6 one to two 5ml spoonfuls 3-4 times a day".
like you say if it wasn't to be used I would have thought would have been recalled to change the boxes. obviously wouldn't use it with any other meds )
