I do not know what the specific dose for children is, however the Paranil brand I take from Dr. natura has a seperate product available and safe for children, it is called Paranil Jr. If you are concerned about your kids, understandably so:), I would contact Dr. Natura about the product they have for kids. I attached the link below, interesting enough it does NOT have Wormwood in it, so there may not be a "safe" dose for children. They have a great website and customer service group, very good at answering questions and concerns.
