An overdose of Tylenol can be fatal in infants.[1]
Call Poison Control on 1-800-222-1222 or call your local Emergency Room IMMEDIATELY!
Just to point out that paracetamo (Tylenol) OD can easily be fatal in adults too. Accidental overdose of paracetamol is the most common cause of poisoning in infants. Your medicine cupboard should be high up with a child-proof catch and medicines should be in it.

Infants at that age can have a fever for varying reasons. Until they are 2 months of age, a fever above 101 degrees Fahrenheit should be taken seriously. Contact your physician for treatment ASAP.

Over the counter pain pills for dogs?
dogs can actually take infant/childrens pain medication and administer it by poundage of the dog, just like you would for an infant or toddler, we have used infant tylenol.

It has a chemical that will make a dog's brain swell.
