Is Taking Longifene-DS With Calcium Syrup Dangerous?

Hi , My doctor asked me to use Longifene-DS to increase the appetite of my 2 yrs old daughter for a month. I give 2.5 ml before food 3 times a day. But today I mistook it to calcium syrup and I gave close to 6 ml. Is there any side effect to that? What should I do now?

Hi...Thank you for consulting in Health Care magic.

First of all answering your questions. There is no side effect. But i want to tell you one more thing. Till now there is no appetite stimulant drug which is very effective. All are trials only. If you kid is 10kg and developmentally normal and active...she doesn't require any appetite stimulants.

Hope my answer was helpful for you. I am happy to help any time. Further clarifications and consultations on Health care magic are welcome. If you do not have any clarifications, you can close the discussion and rate the answer. Wish your kid good health.
