The maximum dose of chlorpheniramine for children varies by age and formulation but generally should not exceed 0.5 mg per kilogram of body weight per day. For children aged 2 to 6 years, the typical dosage is 1 mg every 4 to 6 hours, not to exceed 6 mg in 24 hours. For children aged 6 to 12 years, the dosage can be increased to 2 mg every 4 to 6 hours, with a maximum of 12 mg per day. Always consult a pediatrician for specific recommendations tailored to an individual child's needs.

You would probably die from taking a whole bottle (about 30 tablets) if combined with a large amount of opiates and alcohol and traquilizers. Heath Ledger died from a combination of medications. Benedryl was one of the medications he took in combination with opiates and traquilizers. Grapefruit juice enhances the side effects of benzodiazepine traquilizers and anti-histamines also.
