Read the back of your over the counter medicine

Here is tip I got from a pharmacist. Make sure you look at any over-the-counter medicine and RX medicine for possible side effects. Then if your child has a side effect you’ll know what it is from. Also, if your child has had one of side effects before you can discuss this with the doctor before giving the medicine. Also, see how old your child needs to be to take the medicine and what dosage they should have. Many over-the-counter medicines are not for children two-years-old and younger.
