What would happen to a child 12-15 years old that took 4 allergy pills when it said only take 1-2 and no more than 6 capsules in 24 hours?

Answer #1

It depends on the allergy pill and the child. Symptoms of an overdose can range from feeling restless or nervous, nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, dizziness, drowsiness,to a seizure. So i would get in contact with a doctor asap.

Answer #2

I think the child should be ok, but it wouldn’t do any harm to contact poison control or a doctor.

Answer #3

Depends on the med… but most likely nothing, what is more interesting is why this child was allowed (or wanted) to take the meds…

Answer #4

411 your local poison controle center for next time, and trust me their will be a next time. the child will probly be find just very sleepy
