News India Live, Digital Desk: Child Treatment Safety: When it comes to the health of children, it is the most important work in the world for our parents. But sometimes, inadvertently, while giving medicines, we make some mistakes that can prove to be very dangerous for children. Doctors also often recommend us to avoid these mistakes, because even a slight lapse can be fatal.
Today we will talk about 4 such big mistakes, which often we do while giving medicines, and which should not be repeated at all:
- Giving the elderly medicine to the child:
- Mistake Often we think that if this medicine of this disease is given to the elders, then we can give the child in small amounts.
- Why dangerous? It is a big mistake! Children’s bodies are different from the elders. The dose of medicine is fixed according to their age, weight and metabolism. Giving the medicine of elders to the child can be very poisonous, because its quantity will be very high for the child. Always give medicines made for children and their doses given by their doctor.
- Giving old medicine or without doctor’s advice:
- Mistake When the child falls ill, we give old remaining medicines, or we take any medicine without asking a doctor.
- Why dangerous? Every time the cause of a child’s illness can be different. It may be that the last time the medicine does not affect this disease, or can harm the opposite. Also, the medicine with expiry date or not stored in the right way can also become poison. Always buy new medicines only after the doctor’s advice.
- Without asking the medicine without asking:
- Mistake If the children do not drink medicines easily, then we often mix their milk, juice or food and drink it, so that they drink.
- Why dangerous? This is not right every time. The effect of some medicines, if they are mixed in a particular food or drinking, then it decreases or ends. Many times, by changing the taste, the child then stops eating that thing too. What would be right to mix the medicine with it, always ask the doctor.
- Halfing Khuraq or closing the medicine in the middle:
- Mistake When the child feels a little fine, we reduce the dose of the medicine or stop giving the medicine in the middle, thinking that there is no need now.
- Why dangerous? The amount of the amount and the amount of medicines for us to give us medicines, it is meant to completely eliminate the infection in the body. If you close the medicine in the middle or reduce the dose, the disease is not completely cured and maybe it comes back again quickly, and this time that medicine is not affected. Always complete the course of medicine.
Remember, giving medicines to children is not a small matter. This is always a responsibility work. Whenever you give medicines to the children, always listen to the advice of the doctor carefully and walk as they say. His health is the highest!
