Children are the hope of the whole family and the focus of parents. Therefore, after the child becomes ill, parents will be more anxious and will ask their children to take medicine as soon as possible to relieve their symptoms. Some parents even keep some medicine at home for emergencies, but taking medicine for children is not a joke.
Have you ever seen such a public service advertisement?
Nuo is a lively and cheerful little girl who likes to sing and dance very much because during the critical period of learning to speak, she had a high fever and used anti-inflammatory and cough medicines, which eventually led to ear toxic deafness, which eventually caused deafness to hear the sound and could not speak.
Improper medication ruins a lifetime?
Most of the time parents will purchase medicines for their children to treat, and there will be no problems, but exceptions are not ruled out. Some parents will blindly use medicines for their children because they are too worried about their children.
The children's functions and organs are immature, and their weight, height and surface vary greatly at different ages, and there are also obvious differences in the distribution, absorption and metabolism of drugs. According to surveys, the application volume is less than 30,000 children in my country are deaf every year, and about 7,000 children die.
In my country, there are about 30,000 children who become deaf children due to improper medication every year. Among them, there are countless children who cause damage to the liver and kidney function and nervous system.
In mid-October last year, the National Drug Evaluation Center of the State Drug Administration released the "National Drug Adverse Reaction Monitoring Annual Report", which released the latest children's drug blacklist .
In some areas where medical conditions are backward, doctors know that this drug may cause adverse reactions, but if you don’t use it, there will be no medicine available. Some rural doctors have been doing it for decades based on their experience and have continued to use medical textbooks from the last century. There is no condition for continuous further study at the grassroots level, so I really don’t know that the instructions for this drug have been changed.
Therefore, the taboos for children's medication must be paid attention to by parents, and the last line of defense should be taken to avoid regrets that they feed the medicine into the child's mouth and cause tragedy.
Misconceptions about children's medication use Duoduo
CCTV.com A survey showed that more than 80% of parents have medication use misunderstandings, so pharmacies must shoulder the responsibility of being responsible for customers' health. So what are the four most common mistakes to make when taking medicine for children?
Misconception 1: Dissolve the medicine in milk, sugar water, porridge soup and take
Because milk, beverages, sugar water and other liquids contain a variety of substances, they may be combined with the drug, affecting the absorption of the drug, and some may even destroy the structure of the drug, thereby affecting the effect of the drug treatment.
For example, there are more mineral elements such as calcium and iron in sugar, which can react chemically with proteins in traditional Chinese medicine and precipitate turbidly, resulting in a significant reduction in the efficacy.
Misconception 2: Mixed medication
When using medication mixed, the drug will interact with each other, which may affect the efficacy of the drug and increase the incidence of adverse reactions. Mixed drugs may also make the dose of drugs relatively high, resulting in overdoses of drugs to cause toxicity, so it is recommended to avoid mixed drugs.
Misconception 3: Abuse of antibiotics
Many parents treat antibiotics as a "panacea" and use antibiotics whenever they have colds or coughs, and they will take antibiotics immediately whenever they have a fever.
But pediatricians clearly pointed out that if there is no bacteria, mycoplasma or Chlamydia infection, the use of antibiotics is unnecessary, and our daily common respiratory infections are mostly caused by viral infections, so do not abuse antibiotics. Too much antibiotic use will not only damage the stomach and intestines and affect appetite, but also kill probiotics in the intestines, which will have a certain impact on digestive function.
Misconception 4: Give adults a small amount of medicine to children
Some adults’ medications are prohibited for children, such as Nimesulil . It is not recommended for children under 12 years old to use it. quinolones levofloxacin , and children under 18 years old are prohibited.

I have taken it before as long as there are no adverse reactions, you don’t have to worry. If adverse reactions occur, go to the hospital in time. The important thing is that from today on, don’t give these medicines to your children!
Colds are high during the period of high incidence. Whether it is treating children or yourself, you must go to the doctor when you are sick. Use medicine safely under the guidance of our doctors. Do not think about buying some medicine to "cope with it" in the past. You are "coping" your illness now, and when there is a real problem, your body will not "cope" with you! I hope that parents will avoid detours and avoid tragedies when their children are sick!
