How and when do I administer Clarocet Junior?
When first administering Clarocet Junior, it is recommended that you
consider the following guidelines in order to develop a usage schedule
that's right
for your child:
- Limit your child's intake of Clarocet Junior to just 1 tablet taken once daily during the first 7 days of use. Clarocet Junior may be swallowed whole or crushed into a large, 8 to 10oz glass of juice or water. If you prefer, you may crush a tablet of Clarocet Junior and add it to a food item such as jam or peanut butter. Chewing Clarocet Junior is not recommended.
- Gradually increasing your child's daily intake will allow you to determine his or her individual response to Clarocet Junior slowly. If, after the first week, you feel it is necessary for your child to take more than a single tablet of Clarocet Junior per day, it is suggested that you increase his or her daily consumption to 2 tablets. Your child's intake should not exceed 4 tablets of Clarocet Junior within a 24-hour period.
- Establishing a usage schedule that helps make it easy to remember when to administer Clarocet Junior is always better than your child not taking it on a consistent basis. Therefore, if you prefer a specific time of day that is convenient for you (e.g., administering Clarocet Junior with breakfast or at lunch time) then it is recommended that you practise this usage schedule.
