Now, dosing has been made even easier for parents and safer for children as the newPediaCare® and Little Remedies® single-concentration acetaminophen products hit store shelves.This is great news because the dosing on Acetaminophen was always a bit confusing even to me and I’m a Pediatric-Neonatal R.N. I hope the new dosing clears up the confusion! As safe and effective as Acetaminophen is, it must be used correctly!
