It's only been about five hours and most medications require a 8-12 hour period. I'd suggest taking your child to a doctor. NOW. If you can't read the directions on a medication or afford to take your child to a doctor, maybe you should consider giving her up for adoption. There are many responsible couples who would love to have a child to love.

From my quick internet search, it looks like Gravol is the Canadian version of Dramamine in the US. The dosage for Dramamine in a child 2 to 6 years of age is 1/4 to 1/2 tablet every 6 to 8 hours, not to exceed 1-1/2 tablets in a 24 hours period.

I would suggest calling your pediatrician for suggestions. If you don't have a doctor, you can always call the emergeny room of your local hospital and speak to a nurse there.

you should wait about 8 hours...and for the one above me who was caring on about giving the child up for adoption...shame on you ...you are a bi*** for Pete's sake they are asking about a sick child and you are telling them to get rid of her.Babies get sick it is not anything you did forget about her
