Hi,
Hope you have given only one dose like this.
Sinarest contains 3 medicines combined in the drops.
One of them may make the baby sleep more than usual! (for a few hours).
Otherwise there should not be any major problem!
Do not worry!
Anyway I am sure you will take extra care from next time!
All the best
Dr Uma
