Hello mom
The doses of medicine can be calculated according to babies weight. If You babies weight is the more than 10 kgs and you are giving syrup then yes you can give 5ML otherwise not. Still your baby doesn’t get relief then consult with your doctor about it because Dr can advise you well after examining baby and having some blood test
