A. Do not give to babies less than 2 months of age. For infants 2-3 months no more than 2 doses should be given. Do not give more than 4 doses in any 24 hour period.Giving paracetamol to babies from 2 months If your baby is in pain or has a high temperature (including after having vaccinations), you can give them 1 dose of paracetamol syrup (or 1 suppository). The usual dose is 2.5ml of infant syrup (or a 60mg suppository).
