For dosing, use a measuring cup, which was mentioned above. The medicine can be given to children up to two years, but no more than twice a day for 1 ml.

Another form of the drug "Ambrobene" is gelatin capsules containing white granules inside. Take them immediately after eating and try to drink more water, which contributes to liquefaction and exit of phlegm. Children under the age of 12 can not be given capsules.
