What Causes The Repercussion Of Giving Increased Dosage Of Augmentin To Child?

Hi, I have accidentally given my 2 and a half year old a double dose of augmentin duo for 3 days I gave 10mls instead of 5 due to a pharmacy error, he is fine with no side effects that I can see but am really worried there may be any long term damage?
