Suggest Remedies For Accidental Ingestion Of Levothyroxine By A Child
I caught my grand daughter 2 years old on the floor with a bottle of levothyroxine 88 MCG. She had two in her mouth and I cleared the out she also spit up due to my finger trying to see if she had swallowed any of them. Nothin came up. she is acting fine what should I do?
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, if no related symptoms are there then it is nothing to worry, if it is suspected that child had swallowed the medicine then it need to be take to ER and it can not be taken as granted, there should be no room for doubt and if it is then better to see the ER hope this information helps.
