    Before calling your doctor, have a pencil and paper ready and the following information (except in emergencies):

    • Your child's main symptoms

      Note: If your child has a chronic disease, be sure to mention it.

    • Your child's temperature (if he or she is sick) and how you measured it.
    • Your child's approximate weight (needed for calculating drug dosages)
    • The names and dosages of any medication your child is taking
    • Your pharmacy's telephone number
