At what weight could we increase the dose for my 5-month-old baby taking Prevacid 15mg, 3/4 of a tablet?

A typical dosage for a 5-month-old baby on Prevacid 15mg is 3/4 of a tablet. Generally, the dosage is based on the weight of the child, with a recommended range of 1 to 2 mg per kilogram per day and a maximum of 60mg per day. It is important to start with the lowest effective dose to avoid giving too much medication to children.
