Hi....I understand your concern. Please get back to me with the current weight of the child as all drugs in pediatrics are calculated according to mg per kg bodyweight.

Brief Answer:
As per your information

Detailed Answer:
Your child has consumed around 6 mg of chlorphenaramine and 90mg of pseudoepidrine. These dosages are not serious to harm the child fatally but yes can cause pronounced side effects like extreme drowsiness or excessive sleeping, irregular heart beat , rarely sezuires.

I would recommend he to been seen by a local doctor immediately to examine him and ascertain that there is no sign of impending seizure.

Wish you good health.
