@zeezahbee
i have trouble sleeping at night and its kinda affecting me...been doing a lot of academic work and its taking a toll and affecting my sleeping pattern. Takes me close to 2 hours lying on my bed before i can get to sleep. A friend asked me to take 'sleeping tablets' but i dunno if its good healthwise. Are there downsides/after effects for taking drugs to force one to sleep?
regards!!!!!

Dear Pharmacist,

How safe is it to administer tablets to children of 5-7 years of age? I read on some syrup labels that children of up to 12 years can take syrup, if so why do some hospitals give tablets (like paracetamol) to children of this age range? Can their livers cope with tablets? Pls educate us.

Thank you.

Wendy80: Hello,
Pls it proper to give a child malaria drug monthly even when the child is not sick?

its wrong and dangerous. Although they are drugs to prevent malaria.mosquitoes cause this disease, it is important to keep mosquitoes at bay. Try to keep your surroundings free of mosquito breeding grounds, such as stagnant water. Get rid of old flower pots, vases, air coolers and other items that collect water.

You can follow other preventive measures:
Dressing your child in light-coloured clothing. Dark colours attract mosquitoes.
Dressing her in long-sleeved and full length garments to avoid skin exposure.
Staying in air-conditioned or cool areas. Mosquitoes do not thrive in cold temperatures.
Using oil-based creams and sprays or other mosquito repellents.
Using mosquito nets while sleeping, not only at night but also during her daytime naps.
Keeping your child away from hedges and bushes when in the park. These are areas where mosquitoes are commonly found.

Note: if you are in high-risk area, you can adminster Malarone®
Malarone tablets contain two medicines: proguanil hydrochloride and atovaquone. Start giving malarone 1-2 days before entering the high-risk area. Give it regularly while you are in the high-risk area, and continue to give it for 1 week after leaving that area.

Yeah i have done that but the drugs the lab scientist recommend did not have an effect on it, it returned after one week..

I just saw this thread and saw a need to correct some things.
@o.p,you are doing a great job informing people about their health. nice job so far. but my problem is with the prescription of some drugs. anti tuberculi shouldn't be prescribed online. the patient needs to be properly examined and counselled. and also the prescription of some POM . and also the issue with the prednisolone. Nigerians love to abuse drugs as long as it works for them. so please be careful with whatever drug you are asking them to use or better still tell them to visit the hospital for proper examination.
and@the doctors,haba, we are not fighting. true,she did some things wrong,but there are better ways of correcting people. we are colleagues and not enemies. correcting her that way will make you look like bad people to the ordinary man benefiting from her advice, meanwhile you are only trying to help. abeg,our aim is to all work together to move nigeria's health care system to the next level.

Pls. Is it true dat an expired drug has a grace of 3-6 months frm d date of expiry.

Syrup is usually sweetened to make it easier for children to swallow. What is important is the amount of "active" drug component in a particular quantity of syrup. An equivalent amount of tablet can be given if the child can swallow it. Sometimes u may be advised to dissolve the tablet with "something sweet" (thus creating a syrup) before giving to the child. Equivalent doses of tablet and syrup are the same and d child's liver will handle both the same way.

at your age some lifestyle modifications would help reduce your BP and may even eliminate the need for drugs till very much later in life. However, if ur BP was very high, u ll need drugs to lower it. The following lifestyle changes would help :
1) exercises: mild/moderate aerobic exercises (jogging, cycling, swimming, skipping rope, etc) about 3-4 times each week. Note that the important thing here is "constancy" NOT "severity" of the exercise.
2) diet: no additional salt after cooking.
Take lots of vegetables and fruits (banana contains lots of potassium which helps BP regulation).
Reduce consumption of simple sugars like carbonated drinks even the so-called "low sugar" ones. Also reduce intake of high calorie processed foods like indomie.
Reduce alcohol intake but stop smoking totally.
Fresh Fish, turkey, chicken are preferable to red meat like beef.
3) lifestyle: lead a more active lifestyle eg stroll to the eatery/atm instead of driving; pound your crayfish/pepper instead of blending; clean the house yourself instead of having d help do it, etc.
Doing the above would start showing their effect in BP reduction in about a month, so don't be discouraged if after a week or two, it "seems" not to be working.
NORVASC is a BP drug (amlodipine actually). U need to be evaluated to determine if you would require both drugs or just one of them.
About your chest pain, it could be a number of possibilities. U should see a doctor for proper evaluation.
