What Should I Do If Child Sucked 100mg Of Trazodone?

My 11 month old was caught sucking on my 100mg trazodone!! The pill was only slighty dissolved in his mouth and I put my fingers down his throat to make him throw up but nothing came up. I do not live close to a hospital & would take me 30 minutes to arrive at one. What should I do??

Thanks for the question. If you have retrived full pill already and very sure that only small amount was sucked but not bitten then very unlikely tohave poisoning.
Well watch for any abnormal behaviour , irritability, sleeplessness. Give child syrup digene thrice a day. And any of above symptoms appear then you should immediately consult.
