A. the dosage depends upon the weight of the child and it is probable that the weight of the child is more that's why this dosage might have been given otherwise you can confirm this with your doctor who will tell you if the dosage is proper or not

A. If You are doctors advice in a course you can give it to the child because they definitely have better knowledge than us it’s completely okay and nebulisation is also going to be very very helpful as of now twice a day for five days that’s going to be very good
