Hi,
Thank you for posting the question.
Yes,these kind of pain relief medicines are indeed very harmful for toddlers health and should be avoided.
These cause adverse effects on liver and kidneys and should be avoided as far as possible.
Do consult a paediatrician for alternative medicines for the patient.
Thank you.
