Pls advice swallowed tablet
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?
