Thanks for consulting in Healthcare Magic, it's clear that she has negative effects after mistaken drinking medicine. The first aid and treatment is desintoxicational therapy, give to her absorbent-charcoal 1 tab 1 time 5 days. Try to keep her hydrated with plenty of water or ORS 10ml every 5-10 min. She should drink at least 1 litre every day.She should follow diet and eat only carbohydrates without fat and proteins. For example,boiled rice,soap,boiled potato, dry bread.In addition you can add enzymes for good digestion
