Hello I think my 3 year old son may have eaten a 800mg ibuprofen he found in my purse . He weighs about 36 lbs . Should I go to the er ? Ive been trying to make him drink as much water as possible. Im not for sure if he ate it or not I just noticed the section of my purse where I keep my occasional meds at was open.
Howell come to ChatDoctorI really appreciate your concern, if you are not sure, and it is just doubt being created, second if you are sure that the baby swallowed the tablet of Ibuprofen so in either of this case get the baby to hospital, although it may not be anything serious, but gastritis can be prevented or severe allergic condition can manage if ever happened, even if you are not sure still it is better to see the ER hope this information helps.
