Ziqri @ Iri started having fever yesterday. With flu..now nasal congestion.
Ape pun less than 2 years old cannot give antihistamines (cough mixture, chlorpheniramine, etc).
Actually, all these already written on bottles. Please check the small print, ok..
Kalau nk jgk..can go to private clinic. Most are prescribing this meds. As for us at Govt clinic..we cannot practice this..must strictly follow MOH guidelines.
But, frankly said, anak aku kalau umo 1 year 2/12 & above...developmentally normal (gross motor, fine motor, speech & hearing, and social), growth charting normal (weight & height-to-age, and also HC (head circumference)...aku bagi je...tp, mesti under close supervision tau.
What's in Dr's mind are a lot...kite dilatih peripheral thinkings. Tapi, public tak pikir camni kan. That's why aku nak SHARE with u ols. THE MORE U KNOW...THE BETTER. Ilmu yg bermanfaat walaupun sedikit mesti dikongsi (Sunnah Rasulullah).
Everythings that may looks simple to you guys may not be so simple to a responsive doctor. So, please ask NICELY when you in doubt...,coz i definitely not kind of entertaining MR / MRS ARROGANT..(harap maklum & harap keluar dari bilik aku dgn segala hormatnya..huahuahua...Inilah doktor kecik yg dh separa senior tp patient slalu kate aku muda mcm baru grad. Ade yg ckp aku mcm bdk sekolah form 3. Sob sob sob..) ->Taktau nk classify feeling sedih or happy or terharu...kui kui kui.
Lagi satu, jgn order Dr. for antibiotics if Dr. says no indication for it..
(antibiotics are not OTC drugs..that's why only doctor who are trained for at least 5 years medical training can decide whether u can have it ir not)......
Not '1 day doctor' who wiki or read on medscape. Clear?
Ermmm...lagi, kalau anak demam..jangan malas tepid sponging tau..Takottt kene Febrile Fits nanti. Nak tdo mlm sumbatlah Supp PCM (Aku sumbat Supp Voren..power sket..amek kt klinik A..tmpt aku locum 2 thn lpas)..
Ok lah..lenkali aku share lagi.
Anak aku dh start nangis balik.. Waktu tdo asik terperanjat je.
Ni aku kene lah cuti lagi...jage anak..
Till then, enjoy reading.
