If a parent HAS TO give acetaminophen to their child, it is best that they use the smallest amount available - AND that the risk of overdose is absolutely minimal. For too long, this drug has been available in a strength that allowed dosing by drops or dropppersful. The risk has been high for a person to dose teaspoonfuls by mistake.
The next step is for all the manufacturers to agree on a standardized method of measurement and delivery. I prefer the oral syringes. Doses can be exactly tailored to the need at the time.
