It all depends on the severity of the infection the child has contracted and what bacteria caused it. Due to the widespread problem of antibiotic resistance, it seems reasonable to use an individually tailored antibiotic for the child. The doctor, in accordance with current medical knowledge, makes a decision on the dosage of drugs, he can only suggest the manufacturer's data, but they are not binding for him. When it comes to antibiotics such as Ceclor, both the right dose and the intervals between them are important for the effectiveness of treatment. Please remember to administer the antibiotic exactly every 12 hours. Article you may be interested in: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/blog/antybiotyki-czy-przestana-dzialac
