abbeyej Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 I would. My "junior" ibuprofen says ages: 9-10y, weight: 60-71lbs, 250mg ages:11, weight: 72-95lbs, 300mg So I would probably go with one 200mg tablet, and if it doesn't make a difference in an hour, go ahead and give her another half tablet. ETA: here's a link for ibuprofen dosing for children: http://www.askdrsears.com/html/8/T088900.asp#T088901 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
