My partner took about 2 tablespoons (small ones, so 10ml) of children's liquid claritin. So about 20/25 mg. Is this serious?

It is unlikely that there will be serious consequences from taking a slightly higher dose of Claritin. The maximum recommended dose is 10 mg per day, so taking 20-25 mg should not cause any serious harm. The most common side effects may include slight drowsiness or a headache. If the medication was taken in the morning and there have been no severe symptoms by now, it is likely that everything will be fine moving forward.
