Preventable childhood infections can have a huge impact on a child’s life. They can miss out on education due to time spent unwell, be hospitalised, have life-long complications such as deafness, blindness and paralysis. Sometimes they can even cause death.

Childhood immunisation can help keep your child safe. To see if your child is up to date with their childhood vaccinations, check their red book, or contact your GP practice.

All drugs carry risk. We strongly advise you do not to take any drug which has not been prescribed to you. However, if you do choose to use drugs, you can help to reduce the risk of harm by:

1. Dosing low and going slow – take the smallest amount you can and leave as long as you can between doses, at least 2 hours.
2. Sticking to one drug – mixing drugs can cause unexpected and unpredictable results. This includes mixing with alcohol.
3. Never using alone – make sure that there are people around who can respond in the event of an emergency.
If someone becomes ill, get medical help urgently!
