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

It is five times the usual dose. I suggest you to take the kid to the nearest hospital immediately and get her liver function tests, prothrombin time and blood paracetamol levels checked. Usually over dose of paracetamol results in liver dysfunction.

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.
