All these medications, over the period of one month, to a 1 year old child for Common Cold with recurring mild cough. On top of oral medications, 4 different antibiotics, multiple cough syrups, someone (Not a doctor) from nearby medical shop prescribed Meropenem and Amikacin and had the audacity to tell the parents to continue the rest of medicines from nearby hospital on outpatient basis. For investigations, CBC and widal test done, And finally the diagnosis was typhoid fever.
NOW, THIS IS SERIOUS.
I believe, patients can be ignorant, parents can be ignorant but not someone who prescribes these medicines consiously.
