<s>[INST] my baby girl is 4 year old.for 2 days she has cold and then mild fever . Today she developed cough also. i gave her medicines like dimetap, amydramine cough syrup. Today ( friday) here in sharjah , clinics are closed. What should i  do now? Is augmentine safe for kids? [/INST] Hi, welcome to healthcaremagic. Yes, Augmentin or amoxycillin+ clavulanate is safe for children in appropriate doses. The normal dose for kids is 50mg per kg of weight of the child per day in three divided doses. For e.g., for a 15kg child, the dose would be 15X50mg=750mg per day and each dose will be of 750/3=250mg. </s>
