Good morning, ma'am,
To make sure I understand your question and the situation, could you please rephrase your question?
34-year-old woman · 2 years ago
Yes
my daughter is 16 months old and weighs 20 pounds
i would like to know if I can give her Benadryl (on the bottle you have to consult a pharmacist under 24 pounds 2 years)
i am trying to reintroduce food to her and she has had a reaction on her skin (not allergic so no danger) I would like to relieve her with Benadryl.
thank you

Ah intolerances! Thanks for the feedback.
Yes you can give Benadryl for allergy symptoms. The dose is 1 to 1.25mg of medication per kg of your child's weight every 4 to 6 hours, max 4 times per 24 hour period
If you give me the concentration of the product I can tell you the volume to give him/her as needed
