The Dr said to use Tylenol every 4 hrs for 2 month shots. I accidentally gave it every 2 should I call Dr ?

Question

My baby got her 2 month shots today and I was so worried that I got confused with the tylenol dosage. The dr. said to give it every 4 hours but only 3 times and I accidentally gave it btwn 2-3 hours. I just realized my mistake. Should I be worried?

Answer 1

The tylenol will not do anywhere near as much damage as the vaccinations have.

Do NOT get vaccinated.

A vaccinated person is MORE likely to get a disease than a non-vaccinated person. The whole theory of vaccination is flawed. It causes a weakening of the immune system thus making those who are innoculated more susceptible to disease.
There are so many awful side effects to vaccination that it should be considered extremely dangerous.
Just sit back and think for a while.
Is there any sense in injecting a disease directly into your body.
We have been subjected to an awful mind control program to enable the drug manufacturers to make a fortune.

If you go to the vaccination liberation web page, at

You will find all the forms necessary to provide exemption for your child.

Answer 2

I don't know how many times you gave this dose 2-3 hrs apart, but I would just monitor your daughter closely for at least 12 hours straight, if you notice anything out of the normal for your baby get her to emerg, if you notice no changes she should be okay. I would also call a 24 hour pharmacy and ask them for advice if you are still concerned, as any other parent would most likely be.

I guess my son just didn't react to and of his shots. I was only told to give him a dose of baby tylenol 1-2 hours before a shot, but I have also bee told that is old information and that in giving baby tylenol before a shot it can sometimes mask symptoms resulting from a shot. I didn't give him anything for the first few shots until my dr told me that a couple of the shots he was going to be getting were going to hurt him, like chicken pox and measles I think were the 2 shots that hurt because they aren't deep injections like the other shots given, they are not that far under the skin, I don't think those start until around a year old anyway so you don't have to sorry about those anytime soon.

Answer 3

Not a big deal if you did it once. The suggested doses on the bottles are actually lower than what we give in the hospitals anyway. Tylenol can be toxic if given too much so if she has received a few doses every 2-3 hours, and your Dr.'s office is closed, call the poison control hotline and they will direct you as to what to do immediately.

Answer 4

I wouldn't worry unless you have given more than one dose this way. Tylenol can be very dangerous. I over did it with my son when he was 11 and I will never forget it. His lips were pale and he looked as white as a ghost. I took him to the ER not knowing it was the Tylenol causing it and his heart rate was also low. Come to find out he was given too much Tylenol and it was affecting his hemoglobin. I cried because of the mistake I made and have never used tylenol again with any of the kids in my family. You learn from mistakes. If you feel your baby has really gotten too much then by all means go to the ER just to be safe and I pray all is ok.

Answer 5

I wouldn't be worried about that. I don't think that amount of time in between doses is as imperative as the amount of the doseage itself. Just make certain you give the exact amount. She will probably sleep soundly tonight. I would not give the baby any more medication. Tomorrow she may have a small knot around the areas and those could be tender to the touch. She may need Tylenol less frequently tomorrow. Don't get too concerned about a fever unless it persists. That is common too.

Answer 6

Call to put YOUR mind at ease.If baby seems lethargic, be concerned. If it's a one time thing, nothing to be worried about but call anyway, or you'll never rest.

Answer 7

Call the pharmacy then depending on what they say page the doctor or go to the ER.

Answer 8

Be safe call the Dr.

Answer 9

you should call just to make sure. I would say that I would call dont feel bad thaats what answering services are for.

Answer 10

Anything you are not sure about ask your doctor. you're not bothering them, you're not an inconvenience. that's what they are there for. they would rather you call then have you not call and have it be something serious.
