zinc syrup 20 mg per 5 mL elemental zinc product label
Zinc syrup strength varies by brand. Common formulations are:
- 10 mg elemental zinc per 5 mL = 2 mg/mL
- 20 mg elemental zinc per 5 mL = 4 mg/mL
Check whether the label states elemental zinc or a zinc salt such as zinc sulfate. For example, 27.45 mg zinc sulfate monohydrate per 5 mL provides 10 mg elemental zinc. The WHO formulation guidance specifies oral zinc solutions as 10 mg/5 mL or 20 mg/5 mL elemental zinc.
