Excess Thyronorm
Updatedhello Doctor...my daughter is 3 years old and is under thyronorm medication since birth (congenital hypothyroidism).She takes 62.5 mcg of thyronorm every morning regularly. This morning she just chewed about 10-12 additional 50mcg tablets in a flash before we could realise. We immediately made her vomit things and took her to a nearby hospital who also sent a tube through her noose and cleaned her stomach. But the doctor has asked us to be at the hospital for a 24hr observation. We are worried, so looking to your suggestion on anything else we need to do.

I am not a doctor, but keeping her at the hospital as they have instructed was likely the best idea. That way, if something happens, there is a medical team ready and waiting to help her.

How did things go? Is she okay?
