Hello,

Thanks for your query.

Daflon 500 mg is used for venous disorders. It has certain side effects of autonomic nervous system & gastrointestinal system.

Single dose is not expected to cause significant effect.

Give him plenty of liquids for speedy excretion of drug & wait & watch for any new thing which develops.

Do not worry. But be vigilant for any change.
