For a child of 1.9 years age of average weight, 0.5-0.75 ml is fine to be given and therefore you can even increase it slightly without worrying. 0.75 ml would be around 15 drops. When the child cries continuously, it could be suffering from colic and hence colicaid is generally given. You have done the right thing. Do not worry.
