The medication is taken as a liquid, with children aged 6 to 11 years typically taking between 5 mL and 10 mL every 4 to 6 hours, but no more than 6 doses in a 24-hour period. It's important not to use this medication with any other product that contains diphenhydramine, which is a common ingredient that can make a child sleepy.
