Specify medicine: Pl specify what medicine was given for proper advice. If you meant Tylenol, (acetaminophen) or ibuprofen, the two most common meds used for children, one accidental overdose would generally not harm the child but warrants follow up with your child's doctor for Assessment of potential although rare, harmful effects on liver and kidneys, and blood testing as indicated.
