Is Accidental Ingestion Of Ibuprofen Tablet By A Toddler A Serious Concern?
My toddler (3) has taken an ibuprofen tablet while I wasn’t watching (200mg) Will she be okay or do I need to take her to hospital? She says she only took 1 which I’m inclined to believe to be true as there’s 5 missing out the pack and I have 2 at a time She weighs around 19kg

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
