What Should Be Clavam Dose For Cough And Cold In Children?

my child, age 10 yrs and weight 26.5 kg, has taken clavam 625 - twice daily. This was prescribed by the doctor as child was suffering from cough/cold and fever. Is this a very high dose? Since the medicine is already taken, kindly advice if any further consultation to recover the side effects from high dose is required.
