What Does Overdose Of Chlorphenamine Syrup Indicate?
I gave my 6 year old twice the dose of chlorphenamine syrup (I.e 10ml six times in a day) The pharmacy had labelled it as that but the bottle says only 5ml upto six times a day and now I m panicking!!!!?!? Is it dangerous to give that much?? Should I take him into a&e? Any advice appreciated

Hello,
This is not a serious overdose, the worst that would happen is that the child would get very sleep. You do not need to take him to A&E. He will be fine, perhaps just a little groggy
Regards
