Brief Answer:

Antihistamine

Detailed Answer:

Hello,

I usually give antihistamine like cetrizine syrup 3 ml twice a day. However, it is better to get him checked by your pediatrician after a dose or two. Avoid giving medicines more than a day on your own.

Hope I have answered your query.

Take care
