What is the correct dosage of Lax-A-Day for my 2-year-old son who weighs 35 pounds?

The recommended dosage of Lax-A-Day for a 2-year-old child weighing 35 pounds is 16 grams of powder. This amount is calculated based on the child's weight, with 1 gram of powder per kilogram of body weight. Your pharmacist can assist you in measuring out the correct amount, as the packaging may only show measurements up to 17 grams. It is important to note that if a lower dose is effective for your child, there is no need to increase it.
