Dosing sources

Last updated: 28 September 2026

Oh Fever shows the dose from each product's Polish leaflet table and warns about intervals and daily limits. This page lists, for every product, the leaflet it was read from and the table exactly as the app encodes it, and then every rule the app adds on top of the leaflets, with its reason. Always check the leaflet in the box.

Register search (public): rejestry.ezdrowie.gov.pl. The register's product web page needs a login, so each product's register link opens the public search; search there for the product's register id. In the tables, "in product units" converts the row's mg with the product's strength; a fraction of a suppository means that strength does not fit the row (suppositories are given whole).

Leaflet summary shown in the app: Nurofen 125 mg suppositories leaflet: 1 suppository per dose; 12.5-17 kg max 3 a day, the next one after 6 to 8 h (the app: 8 h), 17-20.5 kg max 4 a day every 6 h; do not use under 12.5 kg; “Contact a doctor if symptoms worsen or do not settle after 3 days.”

App additions named in this summary: "the app: 8 h"

Rules the app adds on top of the leaflets

  1. Only the product's own table. For a product on the list the dose shown is the row of that product's leaflet table for the child's weight (and age where the table has age rows or an age column). The app does not compute a dose of its own from mg/kg. Reason: The leaflet approved for that product is the source; the app only reads it.
  2. Never above the table row. The amount never goes above the row, the leaflet's own mg/kg sentence (widened only to the rounding of the leaflet's own table) or its largest single dose. Where the example table and the mg/kg sentence disagree, the lower figure is used. Reason: An ambiguous leaflet is read in the more conservative way (the app's "rule zero").
  3. Syringe marks. The volume is the nearest mark of the syringe (the graduation stated in the leaflet, else the finest step of the leaflet's table, else 0.1 ml below 2 ml and 0.5 ml above); if that mark would be above the row, the next lower mark. Reason: The parent can only give what the syringe measures, and never more than the row.
  4. Whole suppositories. Suppositories are never split: every dose is whole suppositories. For the paracetamol suppositories (a table by age, in mg) a known age gives the age row in whole suppositories, never above 15 mg/kg or the leaflet's largest single dose; without an age at most 1 suppository per dose and never more a day than the table's largest row. Other suppositories: at most 1 per dose. Reason: The suppository leaflets dose by age in mg; a missing age must never allow more than a known one.
  5. Per-dose caps. Paracetamol at most 1000 mg and ibuprofen at most 400 mg in one dose, whatever the weight. Reason: The adult single dose in the leaflets; no child row goes above it.
  6. Daily limits over a rolling 24 h. The row's daily figure and dose count, never above paracetamol 60 mg/kg a day (at most 4000 mg) or ibuprofen 30 mg/kg a day (at most 1200 mg), counted over the last 24 hours, not per calendar day. When a full dose would cross the mg limit, the app offers only the largest amount that still fits. Reason: The leaflets' daily maximum; a rolling window cannot be reset by midnight.
  7. Paracetamol: at most 4 doses a day. At most 4 doses of paracetamol in 24 hours, also where a leaflet says "in 4-6 doses". Reason: The smaller count is the conservative reading and matches the other leaflets and NHS guidance.
  8. Paracetamol: 4 h only between smaller doses. At least 4 h between doses. On leaflets that say "15 mg/kg every 6 h or 10 mg/kg every 4 h" (and Paracetamol Hasco, "every 4-6 hours") 4 h applies only when both the previous and the next dose are at most the threshold (10 mg/kg for Apap dla dzieci Forte and Pedicetamol, else 10.5 mg/kg); otherwise 6 h, and 6 h when the weight or the dose is unknown. Reason: Those leaflets allow 4-hourly dosing only at 10 mg/kg.
  9. Ibuprofen: intervals and the 4th dose. At least 6 h between doses; 8 h in rows where the leaflet says "every 6 to 8 hours" with 3 doses a day. At most 3 doses a day; a 4th only in the rows whose leaflet allows "3 to 4 times", and an unknown age takes the younger row. Reason: A range in a leaflet is read at its conservative end.
  10. Between rows and between columns. A weight in a gap between two rows takes the lower row; "more than 41 kg" starts above 41 kg. Where the leaflet prints an age next to each weight row, a known age takes the lower of the weight row and the age row. Reason: The leaflets do not say which column decides; a gap never rounds a dose up.
  11. Outside the table: no dose. Above the table's last weight or age, or below its first, the app shows no dose of that product and asks to choose another product or a doctor. Reason: The leaflet does not cover that child.
  12. Age and weight gates. Ibuprofen from 5 kg and 3 months, plus each product's own limits. Paracetamol under 3 months (or the product's own consult age, e.g. 2 or 3 years) shows no dose at all: only a doctor's recommendation. Ibuprofen under a product's consult age shows the leaflet's warning. An unknown age does not block. Reason: The leaflets' own limits; below them the decision belongs to a doctor.
  13. Switching products never shortens a wait. The wait after a dose is the longer of what the leaflet of the product given and of the product about to be given ask for, and the daily limit is the strictest of every product given in the last 24 h. Doses of the same medicine less than the minimum interval apart count as one dose. Reason: Changing the bottle must not reset a limit.
  14. The other fever medicine. Less than 60 minutes after the other antipyretic the status is not "now", and logging shows a warning. Reason: NICE NG143: do not give both at the same time.
  15. Treatment length. After 72 h of treatment (shorter where the leaflet says so: Apap dla dzieci Forte 48 h, Panadol 24 h; ibuprofen at 3-5 months and, with no age, under 10 kg: 24 h) the app warns to see a doctor. A break of 36 h ends a course. Reason: The leaflets: "do not use for longer than 3 days without a doctor".
  16. A product added by the parent. No dose is suggested: the parent enters the dose from that product's leaflet. It still counts toward the medicine's interval (paracetamol 6 h after a dose above 10.5 mg/kg, else 4 h; ibuprofen 8 h), the daily limits of the substance and every warning; a dose above 15 mg/kg paracetamol (at most 1000 mg) or 10 mg/kg ibuprofen (at most 400 mg) raises a warning. The same applies to products withdrawn from the list. Reason: The app has no leaflet table for it; the longest intervals of the listed leaflets are used.
  17. Warnings, not blocks. Every check above ends in a warning. The parent can still log the dose; the app never claims to block or enforce anything. Reason: The decision stays with the parent and the doctor.
  18. Weight input limit. Weights up to 150 kg; an open last row ("above 40 kg") is encoded up to it. Reason: The app's own input range, not a leaflet figure.

Products withdrawn from the list

Old doses may reference these products; the app shows no dose for them and treats them like a product the parent added.
