Hello, I understand your concern Licking a strip is unlikely to cause significant harm unless the child chewed/swallowed multiple tablets. Norethisterone has low acute toxicity in small accidental doses. No need to panic. Hormonal effects are dose-dependent and unlikely with a brief exposure. Discourage inducing vomiting at home in the future — it may cause aspiration or trauma. In most cases, supportive observation is safer and recommended. Watch for: Vomiting, diarrhea Abdominal pain Drowsiness or irritability Breast tenderness or spotting (very rare) Any unusual behavior
Next Steps
Observe at home — no specific antidote needed. Hydration — offer fluids to flush out any residual medication. Consult pediatrician if child develops any of the above symptoms.
Health Tips
Red flags: Persistent vomiting Difficulty breathing Altered consciousness Child swallowed multiple tablets or unknown quantity

Just licking strip won’t cause anything . If anything has gone inside wait and watch for vomiting , any drowsiness … no issues with 1-2 tablets if went inside stomach . Plenty of water and fibre rich diet .
Health Tips
Keep away medicines away from children .
