When ever your Child takes medicine . . . .

Pls follow the following guidelines whenever you give medicine to your children

The Nemours Foundation suggests talking to your pharmacist whenever your child needs to take medication. Here are the foundation's  instructions:-


1.Store medications in the kitchen or in a closet - never in the bathroom or another area with lots of moisture. Always keep medicines out of your child's reach.
2.Keep medications in their original containers, so you can reference safety instructions and expiration dates.
3.Throw away expired prescriptions, or any that your child has finished taking.
4.Talk to your pharmacist about safe ways to make medication taste better for children.
5.Administer liquid medications with a medication syringe, instead of a spoon.
6.If it says "refrigerate" on the drug your child is taking, be sure to keep it cool while you're on the road.
7.Never combine more than one drug in the same container.
