What Is The Impact Of Overdosage Of Bifilac Sachet In A Baby?

Hi, My son is 18 months old. He is suffering from fever and motions. I met a doctor yesterday. She prescribed bifilac sachet and suggested to give only 1/2 sachet three times a day. But my wife gave 1 sachet three times a day by mistake(total 3 sachets we gave today). Now we have a fear about the over dosage. Can you please suggest me what will happen if there is a overdose and what are the precautionary steps we can take now if it is a serious thing?

Pediatrician 's  Response
one sachet thrice daily is not an overdose/ toxic dose in 18 months old toddler. in a toddler more dose may lead to giddiness due to hypoglycemia.
excess of lactobacillus may utilize the lactose in food to grow.
