My poor little guy has been sick since last Thursday. He has a bad upper respiratory infection, plus ear pain from a stopped up tube - we have to go to the ENT doctor later this week to see if she can clean it or if he's going to have to have it removed.
You know your toddler is sick when all they want to do is lay on the couch and watch TV or snuggle - so that's how our weekend went. After having to look up a dosage chart on Google to make sure I was giving him the right amount of Tylenol, I realized - I needed a printout to hang on the medicine cabinet. When your little one is running a 103° fever, you want to help them get relief right away, not spend time on the computer trying to make sure that you're not giving too much or too little medicine.
So once he went to bed, I made this handy chart. All the information comes from Healthy-Children.org and is cross referenced with our own pediatrician's website. Double check with your doctor before giving any medicine, as I am not a medical professional, just a mom wanting to make things easier.
So here it is, a printable Tylenol/Acetaminophen Dosage Chart that includes both ages and weight. Hope it makes your life easier as well! If you click the "pop out" button on the top right corner, you can print.
