each reconstituted 5 ml contains cefaxime trihydrate I.P. Eq to cefaxime 50 mg. what would be dosage for 2 year old with ear infection he weighs 28 lbs thank you! ## Hello, Lola! How are you? You should only dose a child according to the doctor's dosing instructions. At such a young age, it is far too easy to put them in danger by dosing them improperly. Usually, the dose would be 8mgs per kilogram orally once a day, or 4mgs per kilogram orally twice a day in separate doses. The FDA lists the typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea. Is there anything else I can help with?
