What dose of Children's benadryl for 4 year old?
What is the rule of thumb for Benadryl dose for children? My DD is 4 and about 35 lbs. I just realized I didn't ask the ped at the well visit and I only have her 3 year old dose info handy in case of an emergency (we have never given Benadryl but I like to know for emergencies).

I never go by age, always by the weights on the bottle.
I found this dosage chart (sorry I can't direct link from my phone)
