thanks for asking
I gone through your query, your 4 year old child having cold and you given maxtra 14ml per day. you are worried about side effect of this dose.
There is not some much side effect of this dose in 4 year old child . he may feel more sleepy. so not send him school and keep him at home and let him sleep if he like to sleep.
correct dose of this drug is 2.5 ml thrice a day for 4 year old child .
so no thing to worry.
hope i able to answer your query .
