I accidentally gave my toddlers expired amoxicillin instead of their fresh bottle. when does a 5 ml what should i do now im very worried. should i wait to get on the correct medicine will this harm them?

Expiration dates are always very conservative and penicillins in general are very stable, and there is nothing harmful in the expired bottle. If your toddler is doing well there is no need to treat them again just because of the expiration date.
