My 6-year-old accidentally swallowed a Pan 40 tablet. There have been no side effects, and it's been about 2 hours since she took it. I'm really worried and not sure what to do. Can you advise?

View allI'm really worried about my 3-year-old who has a fever of 101. His weight is around 12 kg, and I have Calpol syrup 250 mg at home. Can you let me know how much I should be giving him to help bring the fever down? Is this the right dosage for his age and weight?
For a 3-year-old child weighing 12kg with a 101F fever, the recommended dosage of Calpol 250mg syrup is 5-7.5ml (1.25-1.875mgkg) every 4-6 hours, not exceeding 4 doses in 24 hours;

I'm really worried because my 2-year-old just ate some of the slime from a toy called Barrel-o-Slime. Could this be harmful or cause any issues? What should I do?
If your 2-year-old ingested a small amount of Barrel-O-Slime, they might experience mild symptoms like nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea, but severe complications are unlikely; however, monitor your child closely and seek immediate medical attention if you notice any of the following: difficulty breathing, severe vomiting, abdominal pain, or lethargy.

I'm a bit worried about my family member. He had a cold on the 14th and 15th, and then on the 16th, he started having a fever along with a headache and pain in both legs, which kept him up all night. Whenever he gets a fever, his legs usually hurt too. Weve been giving him crosin and other meds as advised by a clinic doctor. He seemed okay this morning, but now the pain is back. Hes really sensitive, so Im looking for guidance on how to help him feel better. What do you think we should do?
