next time do not It is not good to sedate the child. Only one drug is enough. I do not prescribe these drugs, Use Indian Herbs. Make Kadda with Jaggery, Crushed ginger, Tulsi, Clov,es,2-3 in number, 2-3 full black pepper, in 150 ml f water and boiltoreduce water to 100ml. Cool it, and feed the baby slowly. You can repeat it 2-3 ti,mes. It works. Whole world has adopted it. Go for it
Next Steps
Nothing can be done for over dose . Keep the baby active. Do not allow him to sleep. Now Relax Do not worry, but next time,it should not happen
