Driving at full speed, Chuka’s mind kept going over the events that transpired 30mins ago. It felt like his body might explode from all the anger inside him. “How could she do this to me” He said out loud and he banged his right hand on the steering wheel in anger.

I can bet my left kidney this didn't happen, but isn't Loratadine comparatively safer than Piriton for infants and toddlers? As far as I know, antihistamines are generally not used for them but if it's absolutely necessary, a second generation antihistamine is preferable.

🚨🚨 A doctor in a government hospital almost gave my 5-month-old baby the WRONG medication today 🤦🏽‍♀️💔 I took my 5-month-old baby to the hospital this morning after she ran a high fever all night and couldn’t sleep . We just moved to a new area, so I decided to register for a family card at a nearby general hospital—for immunizations and minor health emergencies. After registration, my baby’s vitals were checked. 1 hour later ⏳, I was called in to see the doctor. One doctor was attending to over 20 patients—mostly babies and children, with a few adults. I explained everything, and he suggested a CBC test for my baby. Results came out: infection. Apparently from putting her hands in her mouth. Meanwhile, I had been giving her Bonababe all this while, thinking it was just teething 🤦🏽‍♀️ I took the results back to the doctor and he prescribed: Loratadine syrup + Meroclau suspension. I went to the pharmacy to get the drugs… and that’s where things got scary 😳 The pharmacist looked at the prescription, paused, then asked: “Madam, how old is your baby?” I said, “5 months.” She immediately said, “No naw, please come with me.” We both went back to the doctor. She told him straight: “Doctor, Loratadine is NOT supposed to be prescribed for a 5-month-old baby.” The doctor looked her in the face and asked: “Why?” 😐 At that point, I was already uncomfortable. The pharmacist, clearly irritated, said: “We’ve been instructed by the former doctor not to give it to babies below 1 year. Please prescribe Piriton instead.” This doctor was STILL arguing: “But why? What’s his reason for saying that?” 🤦🏽‍♀️ Omo… 😩 Eventually, he reluctantly tore the first prescription and wrote: Piriton syrup (2.5ml for 5 days) + Meroclau suspension (2.5ml, twice daily for 7 days). Meanwhile, the pharmacist and even the nurse were already exchanging looks like: “This one no too sabi wetin him dey do.” 😒 As a mother, I felt it instantly—that fear 😭💔 Because how do you confidently prescribe the WRONG medication for a 5-month-old baby… and still be arguing when corrected? 😡 I didn’t even argue. I left that hospital immediately and went back to my former hospital, Mother & Child, to reconfirm everything. Because ego + inexperience is a dangerous combination ⚠️ Government hospitals need to do better. How do you leave babies and children in the hands of an inexperienced doctor without proper supervision? 🤷🏽‍♀️ These are people’s children we’re talking about 💔 Or is it until something irreversible happens before we start taking

Why don't you establish a hospital, employ specialists and run it for free? A specialist who got to that position after years of sweat and sacrifices shouldn't charge people his worth because he deals with human lives? You people are very very very wicked
Deborah@Deborah09072

@WealthwithMiah @TobiOdukoyaFilm I understand your point, but I think it oversimplifies the issue. Healthcare is not like cinema or restaurant it’s a basic human need, not a luxury service. Yes, hospitals have operational costs, but there should still be systems that ensure people are not denied care because of

Might as well tag NMA. Dadandidi. You think the 2nd consultation ends with just interpretation of the results? There wouldn't be prescriptions to follow? You people are so disgustingly stvpid
Seun Nuės@daemperor007

@TobiOdukoyaFilm @damola_mills @LagoonHospitals @LagoonHospitals said you have to pay for them to explain your results to you? This is a 1st for me. This is very unethical and exploitative if true & @fccpcnigeria @MDCNOfficial should look into this allegation.

I used to think the doctors that disliked med influencers were overreacting, but you can see how it cheapens our craft. After more than 13 years of medical training, they see it as a waste to pay you $135 for 2 consultations. Thirteen freaking years to get to that point.

Is it that you lots are this dumb or you genuinely do not understand how things work? The first and follow-up consultations are separate sessions and will be charged as such. It's the way it's done universally. You pay for every single consultation if done on different days
LOIS not louis@herdaeholuwah

@lidocaine_v2 @Dr_youngy If she paid to see a consultant, she shouldn’t be paying again for the results to be interpreted. I mean the session has not ended if the requested investigations have not been reviewed.

You lots just miss the point altogether. It is a problem when the pt insists what they have is a migraine when it may not be so and then the pt starts questioning you for not giving them the meds they expect from their pre-consultation diagnosis
The Feminist Agenda@thefemagend

@FEMMY466 It seems like you don't understand the sarcastic point of the tweet you're responding to. A pt coming in and reporting that their head hurts is not diagnostically better for ruling in/out a brain tumor than a pt coming in and reporting they have migraines.

@arojinle1 Wait... Is this country not hard on you too? You don't buy food? You don't buy fuel? Or you think the government is not at fault for all these? How can you with a good conscience support Tinubu?

In 1879, a British/Scottish medical student named Robert Felkin watched an African healer in Uganda perform a caesarean section. Clean incision. Banana wine as anaesthetic and antiseptic. Bleeding cauterised with hot iron. Wound closed with iron pins and herbal root paste. Mother recovered fully. Baby survived. Felkin noted in his journal that the technique was SO REFINED, it was clearly standard practice, performed routinely long before any European arrived. At that same moment, hospitals in London and Edinburgh were still debating whether caesarean sections could ever be justified on a living woman. European surgeons were operating in street clothes, rarely washing their hands, and losing most patients to post-operative infection. The Africans had already solved anaesthesia, anti sepsis, haemostasis, and wound care. Felkin went home and presented his findings to the Edinburgh Obstetrical Society in 1884. The knife used in that surgery still exists. It is now housed in the Science Museum in London. A silent artifact of a surgical tradition they called primitive. They didn't discover our medicine. They witnessed it, wrote it down and forgot to mention where it came from.
