HI
Thanks for posting your query to Healthcaremagic.

If it is really half a tablet then no need to panic . He may feel sleepy for about 8-12 hours but he will be fine . But if the dose or the number of tablets is not know then better take him to ER and get his stomach washed .

Hope this answers your query
