Could Giving Amoxicillin Doses Too Close Effect Health?

Hi, my 4 year old, 27 lb , 3 foot daughter was just accidentally given her amoxicillin doses too close together. She had 1 tsp at 5 pm , then repeated a 1 tsp at 7: 15 pm by another family member. I am concerned, what should I watch for in a reaction? Any advice?

You should watch for frequency of stool or loose stool. Otherwise with this dose I don't think any serious complications can occur. Still you should be very careful about dosages of any medication
