Any unprescribed medication is inadvisable, and mistakenly taking the medication by a child requires special attention. I would advise you to consult a paediatrician.
As I'm sure you know, Controloc is a drug from the group of PPIs, i.e. proton pump inhibitors, whose task is to inhibit the secretion of hydrochloric acid in gastric juice.
At a dose of 40 mg, it is indicated for children over 12 years of age and adults.
If a 3-year-old child takes the drug, side effects may occur. The most common are diarrhea, headaches, dizziness, rash. Please pay special attention to these symptoms.
