What Causes Sleeplessness In A Child While On Tylenol?
We have a two and one-half year old that will not sleep. we have taken away all meds except some Tylenol for teething as needed. He sleeps only two or three hours each night and has given up afternoon nap. Does not seem to be in pain or hurting but will stand up in his bed for several hours after only sleeping two or three hours. He will not go back to sleep. He is exhausted and us parents are also. Any thoughts? Thanks , The Parents.

Hello,
* The Tylenol is not responsible for sleeplessness, but the underlying disease in terms of either infection of the system or else is compelling him not to sleep for a desired period of time due to inflammatory response of the body.
Kindly get his systems checked with an expert pediatrician and get precise medications for the sleeplessness ahead.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
