Hi Dr. My 3-year-old child accidentally swallowed 5ml of an adult cough syrup called TusQ-X+ exactly 15 minutes ago. The bottle contains Terbutaline, Ambroxol, and Guaifenesin. The child is currently at school and is not showing symptoms." Do we need to take child to hospital??

A. Hello! It is an important to observe your child for next few hours to understand if there are any symptoms of discomfort that needs to be addressed by the doctor. If any of it has been informed to you by the teacher or the management, please get in touch with your consulting paediatrician immediately.
