How much Benadryl can I give to my 26 pound 2 year old?
Optional Information: Age: 2, Tennessee Already Tried: Nothing
The recommended dosage for a child of that size is 3/4 (three quarters) of a tspn of the liquid (which has 12.5 mg/ 5 ml).
You should check with the childs MD to make sure giving any medication is necessary in a child that young.
