Giving a 7.4 ml dose to your child is within the general recommendations for the medicine. The dose of Auglavin PPH after the calculation is for a child 35 mg + 5 mg / 1 kg of body weight, The doctor always has the right to prescribe the drug in a different way than the one registered and recommended by the manufacturer.
