What is the dose for a 170 pound person if the dose is 6 mg per kg?
First convert the person weight in pounds to kg: 1 kg = 2.2 lbs so, this person weight in kg is 170 lbs:2.2 lbs/kg = 77.27 kg we know that the dose the person can received is 6 mg/kg. In this case, the person weight is 77.27 kg, so the mg dose he/she will received is: 6 mg/kg x 77.27 kg = 463.62 mg However, this dose (if for medication) sounds like too much because it almost 0.5 kg (500 mg). Most of the time, dosing based on body weight is for pediatrics (infant and children).

Paracetamol dosage in children?
It depends on the child's body weight. Generally you can calculate 10 to 15 mg per kg body weight of the child. For example, if your child weighs 30 kg you can give him 300mg to 450 mg of paracetamol which can be repeated every four hours if needed. But be careful that the dosage does not exceed more than 100 mg per kg body weight in 24 hrs. That is for a 30 kg child you should not exceed a dose of 3000mg in a day.
