Is It Advisable To Give Second Dose Of Amoxicillin Within 6 Hours?
My 5 year old was prescribed amoxicillin for a sinus infection: 10ML twice a day. She took her first dose today at 3pm and I d like to give her another dose now (9pm) which is 6 hours later (instead of 12). Can I do this in order to get her on a regular 12 hour cycle at reasonable times?

Hello, You can give her the second dose at 9p.m. Then get her on a 12 hourly cycle after that. That is fine. Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further. Regards, Dr. Pranav Balakrishnan, General & Family Physician
