    I would call nurse on call and ask them, if they think she needs an ambulance they will call one for you.
    Is there only 1 missing or is there a chance she has had more?
    Is there a poisons information number on the packet, maybe you could call that, what a scare hun.. hope she's ok.

    Looks like only 1 and for her weight she needs 2-3 to affect her but I will be keeping an eye on her and call an ambulance if she starts getting woozy.

    What a scare! My DD ate 2 panadols the other day, i was BESIDE myself! I called the poisons hotline they would have asked her age and weight and they can tell you how much would affect her and what signs to look for if she has a reaction. You did the right thing and i am sure she will be fine

    I also second calling the poison info line, we had to do that once as we weren't sure if our son had eaten some mouse bait. They were really really good.
