Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.
Buspar (Buspirone) has an acceptable dose of upto 10 mg/kg body weight. So, 30 mg of bupsar would not be harmful for your baby although it can lead to sedation. I do not think that any untoward effect would come. However, in case of any unexpected sign, be sure to rush the child to the ER without delay.
