Will My Daughter Have Only Stomach Upset After Having 1 Carprofen 25 Ml?

Hi, my 3 year old (30 lbs) swallowed 1 carprofen 25ml and tonight she has been complaining about her eyes hurting, they are a little bloodshot and shes been rubbing them, this has never happened before. I took her in the shower and washed her from head to toe and rinsed her eyes very well, she seems a bit better, under her eyes are a little swollen. I don t know if maybe its from the pill or if she got something on her hands (what idk) and rubbed her eyes. I called p.control earlier and the said she might a upset tummy and thats about it. What do you think?

carprofen is a NSAID that has been more offen used by veterarians for animals. It is known to cause a lot of Gastrointestinal problems in form of indigestion, pain, nausea, vomiting and diarrhoea. Your child might have accidently applied something into her eyes which has caused such an event. Now make her drink some water(warm). Give her some anti emetic in form of Syp Ondem. She will require only symptomatic treatment.
