[|Human|] I have a 8month old baby. I went to the doctors with him yesterday and they prescribed Ibuprofen 100 MG/5 ML & ACETAMINOPHEN 160 MG/5 ML ELX. Is it safe for me to give him this? They used to give me infant tylenol. I just want to make sure its safe to give him the prescribed about which is 1 teaspoon as needed.
[|AI|]  Hello, I can understand your concern. Child Chat Doctor.  The adult doses for Ibuprofen is 400 to 600 mg 2-3 times a day while the dose of Acetaminophen for adults is 500 mg up to 3 times a day. Infant Tylenol is Acetaminophen suspension only. However, as the child ages, his weight increases and thus for adequate effects of the medicines, dose has to be increased. 100 mg/5 ml for Ibuprofen and 160 mg/5 ml for Acetaminophen is not that high dose that can cause any side effects of overdose to your child. So you can give these medicines to him for relief. I hope this information helps you. Thank you for choosing Chat Doctor. I wish your son feels better soon. Best,
