Ds is 2.

Gave him a wee spoon of piriton but spilt some so gave him more. I just realised I probably shouldnt have as it makes you drowsy.

Do I need to worry?

He'll be fine - my DD2 has a nut allergy and I've been told that a double dose is OK to give in the event of an emergency. If you're worried, phone NHS direct.

Dont panic. I did the same when Dd had chicken pox. NHS direct told me it would be ok but not to give any more in 24 hourperiod.
