8 ml is a high dose for a child of this age.Again weight is more important for prescribing medicines in a child.
At present stopntbe medicines. If he does not get well than you may give drop Alex 0.5 ml three times a day and syrup Ventorlin 2.5 ml two times a day for 3 days.
Also you should instill normal saline drops in nose.
