Is it okay to take too much medicine for hand, foot, and mouth disease for the baby?

Patient's question:

The doctor, our baby got infected with hand, foot, and mouth disease when he was in kindergarten, and then he also developed it. After realizing that the baby had taken too much medicine for hand, foot, and mouth disease, he seemed a bit slow and his reactions became dull. Is it just my psychological effect or a side effect of the medicine?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, the symptoms caused by excessive medication dosage in children with hand, foot, and mouth disease may be due to the side effects of the medication or psychological factors leading to a stimulating reaction. It is not something to be overly concerned about. Please pay close attention to carefully observe the child's specific symptoms, ensure they drink plenty of water, and adjust the treatment based on their condition. This situation can gradually improve over time. Finally, I wish you a speedy recovery.
