Acetaminophen Dosage Chart for Children & Infants

Children's medicines are formulated to deliver the right amount of medicine to your little one. No matter the medicine or brand, always read and follow the label on the bottle before giving a dosage.

Only the dosing device provided with the product should be used to measure the proper amount of medicine.

Do not use more than one product containing acetaminophen at the same time. Ask your healthcare professional about dosages for children under 2 years of age.

For more information on administering TYLENOL® Children's & Infants’ medication, see our guide below or ask your pediatrician.

If possible, use weight to dose, otherwise use age. Do not exceed more than five doses in 24 hours.
