Can Erdomed be overdosed? A child, 9 years old, was supposed to receive 2x5.5 ml (this powder suspension in a bottle), unfortunately for two days he was given a double dose of 2x11 ml. That was about a week ago, there were no visible symptoms, but I wonder if this drug can cause something, damage the body :(
The cough as it was, so it still is, but according to the doctor auscultated the child clean.

To date, there have been no reported cases of overdose with Erdomed. After taking a higher dose of the drug, it is recommended to consult a doctor.
If, after this situation, the child was examined by a doctor and the doctor did not detect any disturbing changes, it can be considered that this time the drug did not have a harmful effect on the child.
I encourage you to describe your medications in detail, use your notes from appointments to avoid similar situations in the future.
If you are not sure how much your child should receive, you should re-consult them. It is also possible to take advantage of teleconsultation via e.g. the Gdziepolek.pl portal:
