Im from morocco, she was hospitilized and they gave her TRIAXON 500mg for 5 days in the IV . Now she is fine, but i m worried about this infection and from what she got it
It is quite common infection with gram positive cocci in children below the age of one year. when treated with antibiotics these infection will go. so no need for consent regarding this. However if there is recurrence of high fever, a child may need certain basic investigations such as full blood count including peripheral smear examination ,urine culture,chest x-ray, ultrasonagraphy of abdomen etc.,
