About the dosages: should we follow weight or age? I have a big 3 months old baby. He weighs 8 kg… 🥲

A very good PSA Katie. The other difference would be price. I bet the 60ml bottle cost about the same as the 200ml bottle. It's very sneeky! Luv Colin

In Canada the concentration of infant meds is actually different. So this doesn’t stand everywhere.
