This kind of medicine is forbidden for children, be careful if you take it "you will not grow taller"
After experiencing the "drug hoarding" incident some time ago, it seems that everyone has realized the importance of preparing medicines at home.
Recently, a screenshot of the "XBB1.5 strain" was circulated on the Internet, which also suggested that everyone should stock up on some drugs.
After seeing such news, many people began to panic again, so everyone was busy stocking up on medicines, and many medicines were out of stock again.
It’s no wonder that everyone is so anxious to stock up on medicines. Given the previous experience of not being able to buy medicines for fevers, when this screenshot appeared, everyone rushed into pharmacies and started stocking up in advance.
As a result, drugs were sold out again. Many pharmacies said: related drugs are no longer in stock.
However, when people were stocking up on medicines in full swing, some professionals came forward to refute the rumors: Some of the medicines in this screenshot are unreliable.
Giving medicine to children, parents should avoid such mistakes.
First of all, norfloxacin is not suitable for minors. Not only does it not cure diseases, it will also hinder the development of children's cartilage, especially the cartilage of long bone joints, such as knee joints.
There were even reports that such drugs can cause "disability" in children's lower limbs.. Therefore, doctors prohibit the use of this type of medicine by children under the age of 18. After
, there is also montmorillonite powder . Although this drug has a therapeutic effect on diarrhea, once it is used too much, it will remain in the body and may cause constipation and dry stools.
So for parents, the original purpose of stocking up on drugs is to better protect their children, but the side effects of drugs also need to be considered.
Therefore, if the epidemic situation recurs, it is okay to prepare some items rationally.
But don’t follow what others say. Blindly hoarding medicine will only put your children in danger again.
"A medicine is three parts poisonous", so be careful when using medicines
After adults take medicine, the ingredients of many medicines cannot easily pass through the blood-brain barrier and harm the brain.
However, the child's blood-brain barrier function is not fully developed, and certain drug ingredients will pass through the blood-brain barrier and cause damage to the child's brain.
Children's tolerance and reaction to drugs are different from those of adults. Drugs that can be used by adults may be prohibited or used with caution in children.
The "2016 Children's Medication Safety Investigation Report White Paper" shows that every year, about 30,000 children fall into a world of silence due to improper medication, and about 7,000 children die from medication errors. The number of injuries caused to liver and kidney function, nervous system and so on is countless.
When a child gets sick, parents subconsciously take medicine. As everyone knows, in many cases, no special medication is needed, as long as good home care is taken.
Even if medication is necessary, it does not mean that all medicines can be given to children.
In addition, drugs with the words "pediatric " should also be used with caution. In addition to the efficacy of children's drugs, the safety of the drugs should also be considered from the perspective of the child's growth and development.
Not all medicines with the word "pediatric" in them are suitable for children, so you must consider them.
The contents of the drug instructions need to be read carefully to avoid improper drug selection that may cause harm to the baby.
Diarrhea in children, several key points in home care and treatment
Diarrhea in children is a syndrome caused by multiple factors and pathogens.
In my country, the annual incidence of diarrhea in almost every child is as high as 2-3 times, especially in infants and young children between 6 months and 2 years old. It is an important cause of malnutrition and growth and development disorders in children.
As the saying goes, " is three parts of medicine that is poison ", we are facing the continuous escalation of diseases and cannot take medicine at will.
Once a child has diarrhea, we must first prevent and treat dehydration.
You can continue feeding at this time, like oral rehydration. Especially for babies, it is recommended to continue breastfeeding and increase the frequency of breastfeeding appropriately.
Rather than rushing for injections, when a child has diarrhea, the main purpose is to replenish the water in the child's body in a timely manner. In many cases, infusion is not needed.
Secondly, when you have diarrhea, you should also keep a light diet and avoid spicy and spicy foods to prevent gastrointestinal irritation and aggravation of symptoms.
In short, when symptoms of diarrhea occur, you must find out the cause before taking the medicine you want to respond to. Do not take medicine randomly, otherwise the consequences will be "seeking a doctor indiscriminately when you are sick".
Children's body organs are immature, so they should be more cautious than adults when taking medicine.
Therefore, children must be allowed to take children's medicines, and do not casually reduce the adult dosage to children.
Only in this way can we not only help the child recover as soon as possible, but also avoid the adverse effects of the toxic and side effects of drugs on the child to the greatest extent.
