This medication is generally not recommended for infants this young due to safety risks and potential side effects like extreme drowsiness. Constant eye rubbing can be caused by simple tiredness, teething, environmental allergies, or a mild eye irritation. The safest next step is to have her pediatrician evaluate her eyes to find the exact cause. In the meantime, you can gently wipe her eyes with a clean, damp, warm washcloth.
