Use in children and adolescents
Paracetamol Level is administered orally. It is intended for use in children between 3 and 32 kg (approximately 0 to 10 years).
The dose of Paracetamol Level depends on the child's weight. The approximate age is given for information purposes.
The recommended daily dose of paracetamol is approximately 60 mg/kg/day, divided into 4 or 6 daily doses, i.e., 15 mg/kg every 6 hours, or 10 mg/kg every 4 hours.
In children under 3 years, it is recommended to dose the oral solution in drops (3.3 mg/drop), with the drop counter cap included in the 30 ml package.
In children 3 years or older, it is recommended to dose the oral solution in milliliters (ml) (100 mg/ml) using the oral syringe included in the 60 ml package.
For administration of 15 mg/kg every 6 hours, the schedule is as follows:
Child's weight | Age (approximate) | Volume in ml | Paracetamol mg | Equivalent in drops |
Up to 4 kg | 0 to 3 months | 0.6 ml | 60 mg | 18 drops |
Up to 8 kg | 4 to 11 months | 1.2 ml | 120 mg | 36 drops |
Up to 10.5 kg | 12 to 23 months | 1.6 ml | 160 mg | -- |
Up to 13 kg | 2 to 3 years | 2.0 ml | 200 mg | -- |
Up to 18.5 kg | 4 to 5 years | 2.8 ml | 280 mg | -- |
Up to 24 kg | 6 to 8 years | 3.6 ml | 360 mg | -- |
Up to 32 kg | 9 to 10 years | 4.8 ml | 480 mg | -- |
For a direct calculation, you can also multiply the child's weight in kg by 0.15; the result is the ml of Paracetamol Level to be administered.
These doses can be repeated every 6 hours.
If after 3-4 hours of administration the desired effects are not obtained, the dose can be advanced every 4 hours, in which case 10 mg/kg will be administered.
Administration of the preparation is subject to the appearance of painful or febrile symptoms. As these symptoms disappear, this medication should be discontinued.

The symptoms of overdose may be: dizziness, vomiting, loss of appetite, yellowing of the skin and eyes (jaundice), and abdominal pain.
Paracetamol overdose is considered to be the ingestion of a single dose of more than 6 g in adults and more than 100 mg/kg of body weight in children. Treatment of the overdose is more effective if started within 4 hours of ingestion of the medication.
In case the patient is being treated with barbiturates or has chronic alcoholism, they may be more susceptible to a paracetamol overdose.
