Is Cefprozil Ideal To A Child Suffering From Pneumonia?

I accidentally gave my son a double dose of Cefprozil (treating him for pneumonia). He is 16 months old. It has been 5 hours since the double dose occurred and he has vomited twice, each time bringing up food. He is to be taking 3.5mL twice daily. I gave him 7mL this evening by accident. What should I do?

Hello,

I think vomiting is a good thing in this case and help your baby feel better. You may give a glass of warm water as gastric lavage help him vomiting, the next part of medical.

Then, you can feed your baby, so nothing to worry about.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
