Thanks for your query. I have gone through your query.
Nothing to be panic, keep an eye on your child for any changes like rashes or vomiting or any discomfort. If you find any of these symptoms then immediately consult a pediatrician and get it evaluated. If you dont find any symptoms then nothing to worry.
Be careful from now on wards with your kid regarding drug exposure.
I hope i have answered your query. Take care
