Antibiotics should be used with caution in clinical treatment. From the safety point of view, the safety of oral administration of the same drug is greater than that of intramuscular injection, and the safety of intramuscular injection is greater than that of intravenous injection, although both intravenous injection and intramuscular injection are better than oral administration.

However, due to the lack of treatment of digestive tract and defense system by intravenous or muscle tissue administration, the possibility of allergic reaction is greatly increased, and the particles that may be produced during infusion increase the risk of damage to body tissues.

Know the name of the drug: as long as it is a formal drug instruction, there are the generic name, trade name, English name and chemical name of the drug (among which the over-the-counter drug has no chemical name).

Know the expiration date of drugs: specifically, it refers to the approved use period, that is, the period during which drugs can guarantee quality under certain storage conditions. The method of indicating the expiration date of drugs, in chronological order, can generally be used in a certain year and month.

The Drug Administration Law also stipulates that the production batch number, production date and expiration date must be marked on the packaging box or instructions of drugs. Imported drugs must also be written in Chinese in accordance with the above representation, which is convenient for any user to read.

"Precautions" should pay attention to: contraindications, adverse reactions, drug interactions, precautions, etc.

Should children follow the guidelines for drug use? Give priority to drugs with sufficient evidence to prove drug safety.

People's Daily Online, Beijing, May 27th Recently, a series of roundtable forums on "Healthy China People" sponsored by People's Daily Online and People's Health were held in Beijing. Cao Ling, director of the Department of Respiratory Medicine, Children's Hospital affiliated to Capital Institute of Pediatrics, spoke at the round-table forum with the theme of "paying attention to children's medication safety and promoting children's healthy growth".

Children are not miniature versions of adults, and their own drug metabolism is unique. How do children use drugs safely? Cao Ling said that children are not miniature versions of adults, their organ functions are growing and developing, and their organs and organs are not well developed, so their drug metabolism is unique. Therefore, it is unscientific to simply reduce the dosage of adult drugs by 1/2 or 2/3 for children.

"I hope to have drugs and related instructions for children, including drug dosage and side effects." Cao Ling said that at the same time, the dosage form and taste of children's drugs can be more in line with children's characteristics, and small doses of drugs that meet children's tastes can be set; In terms of safety, clinicians generally follow guidelines or consensus recommendations and give priority to drugs with sufficient evidence to prove drug safety.

I hope this medicine is labeled with instructions for children. In view of the adverse reactions of children's clinical medication, Cao Ling believes that children's respiratory diseases are the most common diseases in children. Among the types with high incidence of adverse drug reactions, the most common drugs are antibiotics, Chinese patent medicines and antipyretics. To reduce the adverse reactions of drugs, we must first avoid abusing antibiotics.

For example, through publicity and education, let parents know that the use of antibiotics for children's viral infections has no therapeutic effect, and try to reduce the use of antibiotics. At the same time, it is best to choose oral medicine for the treatment of Chinese patent medicine, and choose children with indications to use it. In addition, in terms of the severity of adverse drug reactions, our principle is to minimize intravenous drug use, which is also a means to reduce adverse drug reactions.
