Brief Answer:
No need to worry

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.

Sinarest contains acetaminophen/paracetamol, chlorpheniramine and pseudoephedrine. The ideal dose is slightly higher for your child. However, it is a very safe medicine and it should not be a problem if given in excess. The only side effect should be increased sleeping but nothing needs to be done for the same. I do not think that you need to see a doctor.

You need not worry.
