==Dosing and Administration==
==Category==
'''ADULTS'''<br>
The usual dose is 250 mg every 6 hours taken one hour before meals.
If twice-a-day dosage is desired, the recommended dose is 500 mg every 12
hours. Dosage may be increased up to 4 grams per day, according to the
severity of the infection. Twice-a-day dosing is not recommended when doses
larger than 1 gram daily are administered.
<br>
<br>
'''CHILDREN''' <br>
Age, weight, and severity of the infection are important factors in
determining the proper dosage. The usual dosage is 30 to 50 mg/kg/day in
divided doses. For the treatment of more severe infections, this dose may be
doubled.
