I can't agree enough. Challenge remains that policy makers have a huge toke to play in changing the narrative. We play our part but they need to wake up and create enabling systems to stem the tide

Getting regular eye exams is an important part of maintaining your vision and eye health. A comprehensive eye exam does more than check your sight; it can help detect signs of conditions like high blood pressure, diabetes, and other health issues early.

DANGEROUS SECRETS: THIS HAS KILLED TOO MANY DAUGHTERS. NO, THE CHEMIST IS NOT YOUR DOCTOR. READ ⋅ SHARE ⋅ REPOST ⋅ SAVE A LIFE Dear sisters, dear brothers, and the aunties who look away while the house burns... pull up a chair. Let us talk about the things we whisper in the dark, and the medicines that were meant to heal but are being used to break. The Shadow in My DMs: When Fear Outruns Wisdom As a pharmacist, my inbox is often a confessional. "Pharm. Billy-young, my girlfriend took the white pills three hours ago and the bleeding won't stop. She’s cold. What do I do?" "Sir, I bought a pack from a man behind the bus park. He said it’s for 'clearing' the womb. Now my stomach feels like it’s being shredded by glass." The messages smell of salt and panic. They come from girls terrified of a father’s belt or a village’s wagging tongue. They come from women who think a pill is a magic eraser for a "mistake." The Pill, The Myth, and The Misery Let us say this clearly and gently: Mifepristone and Misoprostol (often found in packs like Mifepak) are powerful, heavy-duty medications. They are not "emergency contraceptives." They are not "morning-after pills" like Levonorgestrel (Postinor-2). The myth is that they are "safe and easy." The village talk says, "Just swallow two, put two 'down there,' and it will go away like a heavy period." This is a lie. And this lie is burying our sisters. When the Body Screams No: The Physiology of Risk When you use these drugs outside of a strict clinical setting—without an ultrasound to check the location of the pregnancy—you are playing a game of Russian Roulette. If that pregnancy is "outside the tube" (Ectopic), Misoprostol will not end it. Instead, it will cause your uterus to contract against a ghost, while your fallopian tube ruptures in silence. By the time the pain becomes unbearable, the "internal bleeding" has already begun its slow, cold walk toward the end. The Pharmacy of Truth: What You Are Swallowing As a pharmacist, I must tell you what these chemicals do. Misoprostol is a prostaglandin. It makes the womb contract with the force of a thousand angry fists. 🔸The Hemorrhage: This isn't just "bleeding." This is the life-force leaving the body faster than a pad can catch it. 🔸The Sepsis: When the "product" is not fully expelled—an "incomplete abortion"—it sits inside like a decaying secret. It rots. It poisons the blood. 🔸The Interactions: Did you know taking certain painkillers with this can mask the signs of a rupture? Or that your pre-existing anemia makes that "little bit of blood" a death sentence? It Has Strained Beds and Broken Hearts... But You Are Not a Criminal to Your Body I know the pressure. I know the "unwanted" feeling. I know the cultural weight that makes a young woman feel like her life is over because of two red lines on a plastic stick. But please, do not let the fear of shame lead you to the back-alley "chemist" who sells these under the counter without a license. They are selling you a ticket to the ICU, and they will not be there to hold your hand when the shivering starts. So What Can We Do When Fear Arrives Uninvited? If you find yourself in a crisis, the community pharmacy is your first port of safety—not for illegal acts, but for true care. 1. Seek the Green Cross: Walk into a registered pharmacy. Ask to speak to the Pharmacist in the private consultation room. We are trained to listen without stones in our hands. 2. The Correct Path: We will refer you for a proper scan. We must ensure your life is not at risk from an ectopic pregnancy. 3. Post-Crisis Care: If you have already taken something and are bleeding heavily (soaking more than two large pads per hour), GO TO THE HOSPITAL. Do not wait for the morning. The morning may not find you here. A Pharmacist’s Toolkit for Healing If you are recovering from a loss or a complication, we have tools to help the body mend: 🔸Iron Supplements: To rebuild the blood that was spilled. 🔸Antibiotics: To chase away the shadows of infection (only under strict prescription). 🔸Counseling: Because the mind bleeds as much as the body. A Final Word to the Wise Dear sisters, your womb is not a waste bin. Your life is worth more than the "quick fix" offered by a quack. Medicine is a bridge to health, but used wrongly, it becomes a cliff. If you are scared, if you are pressured, if you are hurting—come to us. We will guide you to the right medical experts, the right legal paths, and the right healing. Walk into any good community pharmacy today. Don't ask for a "clearing pill." Ask for a consultation. Ask for help. Your body is a temple, not a battlefield. Let us keep the gates standing.

The core proven prevention tools against malaria infection include insecticide-treated nets (ITNs) and indoor residual spraying (IRS). Nets work because many malaria mosquitoes bite at night — when people are asleep.

If you live in a malaria area, prevention is not “extra”. It’s basic protection. Most malaria infections start with a single mosquito bite. Let’s talk about what actually works. Education only, not medical advice.

What should I do if my child has a #Fever?

@Dey_sewaa Itvs not likely it is teething that is disturbing the child. Please take her to the hospital for a doctor, preferably a Paediatrician to see

𝐈’𝐯𝐞 𝐛𝐞𝐞𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐚 𝐰𝐡𝐢𝐥𝐞. As a clinical medical student, I’ve had the opportunity to benefit from clinical trainings, conferences, mentorship, and exposure beyond the classroom. Those experiences shaped how I think, how I learn, and how I see my future in medicine. But I also noticed something. Many students work just as hard, yet never get access to these spaces—structured skills training, research platforms, or direct interaction with mentors and organisations. I’ve seen students eager to learn procedures but waiting for opportunities. Students doing good research but unsure where to present it. Students looking for guidance but not knowing where to find it. I kept asking myself a simple question: What if all of this could happen in one deliberate space? That question led to this. Together with the Babcock University Association of Medical Students (BUAMS), we are planning our first Clinical & Scientific Conference. The focus is clear: • Practical clinical skills • Student research and case presentations • Mentorship and career guidance • Connection with organisations and opportunities We are bringing together: • Clinical medical students (within and outside Babcock University) • House officers and resident doctors • Faculty members and clinicians • Health organisations, NGOs, and partners This is being built carefully. Not as a one-off event, but as a serious academic platform. To do this well, we need partners. We are open to: • Sponsorship (tiered options available) • Technical and training partnerships • Exhibitions and organisational participation • In-kind support and collaboration If you care about medical education, clinical training, research, or building future doctors, your support will matter. 📍 Babcock University, Ilishan-Remo, Nigeria 📅 March 2026 More details will follow. If this interests you—as a partner, sponsor, exhibitor, mentor, or participant—please reach out, comment, or share. I’d love to continue the conversation.
