Always follow your doctor’s instructions. Dosage depends heavily on your specific condition, age, and weight. Self-medicating is dangerous; never adjust your dose without consulting a medical professional.
For adults, typical oral dosages for nausea and vomiting range from 12.5 to 50 mg every 4 to 6 hours, as needed. The maximum daily dose is usually 100mg. For sedation, lower doses are generally prescribed.
Children’s dosages are significantly lower and strictly weight-dependent. A healthcare provider will calculate the correct dose based on the child’s weight and condition. Never give a child Phenergan without a doctor’s prescription and explicit instructions.
Rectal administration uses a different dosage schedule. Your doctor will explain the correct procedure and dosage if this route is necessary.
Injectable Phenergan is usually administered only in hospital settings by trained medical personnel. Dosage varies greatly depending on the indication and patient’s condition.
