Cremaffin syrup pediatric dose ml per kg body weight children
Cremaffin Syrup dosing (per official product dosing chart):
| Age group | Dose |
|---|---|
| Adults & children >12 yrs | 1/2 - 1 tablespoonful (7.5-15 ml) |
| Children 5-12 yrs | 1-2 teaspoonfuls (5-10 ml) |
| Children 3-5 yrs | 1/2-1 teaspoonful (2.5-5 ml) |
For a 7-year-old (26 kg), this falls in the 5-12 year bracket, so the typical dose is 5-10 ml (1-2 teaspoonfuls), usually given once at bedtime, adjusted based on response (start at the lower end, e.g. 5 ml, and increase to 10 ml if needed for adequate stool softening).
Notes:
- Cremaffin contains liquid paraffin + milk of magnesia (+/- sodium picosulfate depending on formulation), used as a stool softener/laxative for constipation.
- Dosing here is a general OTC label guideline, not weight-based (mg/kg) - it's age-banded. It should ideally be adjusted by your child's pediatrician, especially for the specific Cremaffin variant (Plain vs Cremaffin Wet/Musk) since concentrations differ slightly between formulations.
- Avoid prolonged use (>1 week) without medical advice, and don't use in children under 3 years without a doctor's guidance.
If you can tell me which specific Cremaffin variant (Plain, Wet, or Musk) you have, I can confirm exact ml if the label differs.
