Answer:Not to Worry ! ARNICA will not give the child any bad feelings or symptoms, the child will be just a bit more active and energetic if the child feels any discomfiture give the child a dose of the Homeopathic remedy NUX VOMICA in 30 or 200 potency. I don't think even that will be required. Just keep your medicine out of childrens reach and under lock and key if possible. You can click the link to read about ARNICA in The Homeopathic Materia Medica to make sure that it will not harm your child :- http://homeoint.org/books/boericmm/a/arn...

Take Care and God Bless you !
Don't worry, nothing is likely to happen, but if something abnormal is seen, rush her to the allopathic hospital. If you have camphor in your house, ask her to smell it, not eat it (supervise the smelling). That will provide an antidote.
"Overdosage
An overdose of Arnica can cause severe irritation of the digestive tract along with vomiting, diarrhea, and bleeding. It can also disrupt the heartbeat. If you suspect an overdose, seek emergency treatment immediately. "
good luck, i really hope your child ends up in perfect health..
why the hell was it within reach of a 3 year old anyway, quite frankly ur an idiot. harmless or not the child shud have been on way to hospital immediately following overdose. dont waste time on here u irresponsible moron.
