Brief Answer:
Observe for a few days, usually it would not cause any major issues.

Detailed Answer:
Dear Mr Md Mujahid,

Thanks for the query.

Please do not worry, if you took out most of the tablet out of the mouth the chances of it being swallowed in sufficient quantities to cause problems is low.

However, you need to observe your son for a few days and see if anything changes.

If you notice anything abnormal, then promptly take him to a child specialist and get him checked properly.

If he does not show any signs then nothing will happen.

Do not worry.

Hope it helps.

Best regards
