Brief Answer:
no problem don't worry

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for writing to us.
Both the medicines you described are antihistamines.
They can be given safely to your baby.

I don't understand if you have given 1.25 ml of drops or 1.25 teaspoons of syrup.
Let me know the amount you have given.


Wishing your child good health and speedy recovery.
Regards
Dr Arun
