Can you use eye drops prescribed for your other child for your 5 year old son who now has pink eye?
First, 'these eye drops" could be anything from normal saline, to something prescribed for an adult's eye condition.
Second, NO medication prescribed OR used for 1 child or adult should ever be used by another child or adult. The dropper itself can become contaminated. Also, liquid medications--solutions-- can precipitate out, meaning, part of it can settle to the bottom as a solid or semi-solid (like sugar in tea; or salt in salt water). Medication that has precipitates in it should be thrown away.
Third, pink eye is VERY contagious and can spread fast so you or others around your 5 year old can contract it. Go to the doctor and get the right medication for THIS child.
