Hi thank you for choosing healthcare magic. Kindly note that for any child with abdominal pain it is better he is examined by a paediatrician to rule out serious causes of pain abdomen as kids can,t localise their pain properly and if we give them over the counter medicines like cyclopam we may some serious diseases. We have to treat the cause of pain abdomen rather than treating pain like urinary infection, gastritis, surgical causes, worms etc. Only after all theses causes have been excluded by a child specialist, you can give cyclopam and it's dose depends on the child's weight. Hope this has been helpful to you, kindly feel free to contact again for any queries. Take care.
