Pneumonia is curable.
Probably many are not aware but augmentin has been banned in many countries because it contains di-isodecyl phthalate which is used in the manufacture of plastics.
Its not bad to prescribe antibiotics, however many docs and majority are para graduates use that as an easy avenue to reduce the severity of sickness.
Thanks for the info. Didn't know. And I'm pretty sure I've used it in the past couple of months.
Zinnat was banned too. it is your responsibility as a parent to protect your child from doctors who dont do their research on the medicines to prescribe.... granted you cant know all of them but if you get info like in wazua or through the emails that go round with warnings, then you should use it.
You may blame the doctor for giving the kid weak antibiotics but (though stand to be collected), it is better than your kid getting used to the very strong antibiotics for small ailments... may be in your case, their only mistake is that they did not follow up on the child's response to the weak antibiotics and prescribe the stronger ones.... but for the initial instance, it is best the child is put on weak antibiotics so that the body is also able to help in fighting the diseases. otherwise, the body soldiers become lazy and rely on a dose of antibiotics everytime an attack occurs.
Actually, the reason i moved from the first pediatrician was because every time i showed up with wendzlet suffering from a cough, the doc would prescribe strong antibiotics.... and i knew it was not healthy to literally 'feed' the child with such strong medicines.
