Find the right children's acetaminophen (Tylenol) or paracetamol dose for your child's weight — in mL, teaspoons, or tablets — plus how often you can give it and a free printable dosing chart.
The right acetaminophen (paracetamol) dose for a child is based on weight, not age. This free calculator uses the published pediatric weight-band dosing chart to show your child's single dose for the product you have at home — Children's Tylenol liquid (160 mg/5 mL), chewables, or international paracetamol syrups like Calpol (120 mg/5 mL and 250 mg/5 mL).
How it works:
The result also shows how long to wait between doses (every 4–6 hours) and the maximum number of doses in 24 hours (5). Always use the dosing syringe or cup that comes with the medicine, and never combine it with other medicines that also contain acetaminophen/paracetamol.
Tip: The Fever Whiz app keeps a shared dose log with a built-in timer, so every caregiver knows exactly when the next dose window opens — even at 2 AM.
