Full moon baby compensates 10,000 yuan for mistaking prescription drugs

A baby who was just full month old was sent to the doctor because the pharmacy prescribed the wrong dosage of Chinese medicine and showed adverse symptoms after taking the medicine.
The pharmacy compensated 10,000 yuan
.

The full moon baby was sent to the doctor for improper medication, and the pharmacy compensated 10,000 yuan

According to a report from Loudi News, Loudi’s supervisory department has recently received reports that a pharmacy in the city did not sell prescription drugs with a prescription and prescribed the wrong dose of Chinese medicine, which caused the baby's baby who had just reached his full month to have adverse symptoms
.

It is understood that the customer, Ms.
Liu, took the irregular prescription written on toilet paper by the relatives of the doctor, and bought Chinese herbal medicine pieces for the baby who had just reached the full moon.
The pharmacy staff knew that the prescription was irregular, but prepared the wrong dose of the Chinese medicine.
The red blood cells of the baby rose after taking it.
It is high, but fortunately, the baby has not finished taking the medicine due to the pain, and if he is sent to the doctor in time, the baby's body has not caused serious consequences
.

After 3 hours of on-site mediation by the supervisors, Ms.
Liu and the pharmacy finally reached a settlement: the pharmacy took the initiative to send the patient to the doctor for examination and compensated Ms.
Liu 10,000 yuan
.

The regulatory authority reminds pharmacy operators to strictly implement the "prescription drug sales by prescription" regulations.
The prescription should be a regular prescription, and the name of the hospital, the signature of the physician, and the name of the patient must be indicated
.

According to the above circumstances, in addition to not strictly implementing the “prescription drug sales by prescription” regulations, pharmacies are still prescribing the wrong dose of medication to patients when they know that the prescription is not standardized.
Due to the patient’s age, physical fitness and other reasons, this has a greater safety hazard
.

The pharmacy staff sold the wrong medicine in time to stop it, and the child passed the tragedy

It is worth noting that for children, pharmacies should be careful when selling drugs to parents, and memorize the contraindications and precautions of drugs.
A small omission may lead to adult tragedies
.

According to Xinhua Newspaper.
com, Chen, an employee of a pharmacy in Nanjing, was negligent and sold a suffocation-causing drug to a child with a history of asthma.
Only at night did he realize the "drug taboo" problem, so he immediately called the police.
With the help of the public security organs, through the medical insurance card information, finally contacted the parents of the drug purchase
.

According to Chen’s alarm information, Chen received a 30-year-old male customer at the counter of the pharmacy at around 11 o’clock in the morning.
The customer said that he had bought cough medicine for his 3-year-old child and stated that the child had a history of asthma.
, So Chen sold a bottle of Fullux Acetylcysteine ​​Granules to customers
.

When approaching the end of work, Chen once again received a parent who bought a cough medicine for his child.
Chen recommended the Fulushi Acetylcysteine ​​Granules sold in the morning.
Because the parent had doubts about the medicine, Chen prepared to compare it.
The drug insert explains, but it is unexpected that the drug insert clearly stipulates that it is forbidden for asthma patients, otherwise it may cause respiratory spasm or even suffocation
.

At this time, Chen realized that he had "stucked" a big problem-selling Fullux Acetylcysteine ​​Granules to the family head to treat coughs in children with a history of asthma
.

Does the child take medicine? Will something happen after taking the medicine? Anxious Chen was very worried about the health of the customer's child.
Because there was no contact information for the customer, Chen chose to call the police
.

After getting the police result and learning that the child was fine, Chen expressed his gratitude to the police and apologized to the customer's parents, saying that if something went wrong, he would regret his carelessness for the rest of his life
