2023-04-15 16:32:50
Hi doctor, My kid is 5 years old. Today he accidentally bitten 1 tablet of his grandfather. But i don't know what tablet is that. He is using for bp, aspirin, cholesterol. I don't know which tablet my son bitten. I make him to spit but he swallowed little bits. Only little little bits are swallowed.  I gave him water. He is fine. My question is for how many hours he should be monitored? Any long time effects?
