One-Time Dose: If it was just a single small dose and not moldy or discolored, it’s unlikely to cause serious harm. Most medications lose potency after expiration rather than becoming toxic. However, exceptions exist, so monitor closely.
Watch for Reactions: Over the next 24 hours, observe for any unusual symptoms such as:
Nausea or vomiting Diarrhea Drowsiness or hyperactivity Rash or allergic reactions
Hydration: Ensure she stays well-hydrated in case of any mild symptoms.
Seek Medical Advice: If you notice any symptoms or if you're unsure how much was given, contact your pediatrician or a poison control center for guidance.
