Before determining if a data point is an outlier, the normal data point value range must be determined. To do so, a random sample of a population must be taken, and the data points must be ordered from smallest to largest.
The currently recommended dose of naloxone is 0.1 mg/kg for infants and children from birth to 5 years of age or 20 kg of body weight. Children olden than 5 years of age or weighing more than 20 kg may be given 2.0 mg.
In pediatric patients, doses of 5 mg/kg/day produced plasma levels of naproxen similar to those seen in adults taking 500 mg of naproxen (see CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY). The recommended total daily dose of naproxen is approximately 10 mg/kg given in 2 divided doses (ie, 5 mg/kg given twice a day). A measuring cup marked in 1/2 teaspoon and 2.5 milliliter increments is provided with the NAPROSYN Suspension.
