Antibiotics



I wish some of our doctors would read this, and possibly not give every child they see with a cough/cold/sniffle Amoxicillin 125mg/5ml. Ten bottles used in a morning is not unusual. Then they could possibly work out the dosage properly, rather than taking a random guess at 31.25, 62.5, 125 or 250mg. "Is it three times a day or four? I think I'll give 140ml."
