Paracetamol loading dose administration in children: a retrospective study
Our results indicate that in most cases, paracetamol loading doses are not administered in an academic paediatric hospital, which will strongly delay paracetamol C<sub>ss</sub>. We conclude that the treatment of (pre)term neonates and children with paracetamol can and should be improved.
