Sick Child Care

Medication Dosing Charts

See our dosing charts for acetaminophen and ibuprofen.

If your child is ill or if you have any other concerns, please do not hesitate to call your Dean Clinic pediatrician's office. When you call during regular office hours, you can either make an appointment to see a pediatrician or speak to one of our pediatric nursing staff. Our staff can address many questions or concerns and if necessary, can help facilitate an appointment for your child.

Many questions and concerns will arise after regular office hours and you will still have access to our experienced staff during this time. After regular office hours, you can either call Dean on Call or your Dean Clinic pediatric office (your call will be automatically routed to our Dean on Call service).

Dean on Call, our free 24-hour nurse hotline, is available at (608) 250-1393 and 1-800-576-8773. Dean on Call staff can address many of your questions and concerns, and can even help facilitate appointments for your child if necessary.
