Hello, Thanks for trusting HCM
I have read your description and understand your concern.
Montair Lc Kid Syrup Children should not be use to children under six years. Administration of Montair LC Kids in children under 6 years tends to lead to overdose due to inappropriate doses. However, you do not have to worry too much because you have stopped it.
Overdosage may cause poisoning or serious side-effects. This side-effects are possible, but do not always occur. Some of the side-effects may be rare but serious.
If you observe any of the following side-effects (cough,trouble sleeping,restlessness,irritability and hypersensitivity reactions), especially if they do not go away. Please go to the emergency department of the closest hospital or nursing home. Bring a medicine box, container, or label with you to help doctors with necessary information.

Hopefully this information useful and hope your son get better soon.
Warm Regards,
dr. Inna
