Is There Any Problem For Taking Over Dose Of Synthroid 88?
Do I need to worry if my 3 yr old soon to b 4 in aug, 38lbs.....could have possibly taken 9 pills of synthroid 88. Called poison control and they said not to worry that he will b very hyperactive and moody for nxt 4 days. But my wife is still concerned even though we were told it will b ok after it works out of his system. What symptoms should we look for for the worst case scenario? Not sure if he took that many or not....that s the impression we are getting sence he threw away one of the packages and we can t find it now. That was earlier this morning not sure exactly what time.....but Definately over 9 hrs ago.
Hi thank you for choosing healthcare magic. Regarding your son don't worry that much and just wait and watch as he must not have taken that many tablets as he is fine, you should expect hyperactivity, increased heart rate, not able to sleep, irritability and tremors of his hands etc, as he doesn't have these after 9 hrs, I don't think you should worry that much. Just monitor him for another few days and he should be fine. Hope this has been helpful to you, kindly feel free to contact again for any queries. Kindly rate the answer if so. Take care.
