Practicing Medical Skills in a Small Clinic novel Chapter 176

Chapter 176: Chapter 125: Public Sentiment and a Happy Ending (Part 3)

To be honest, using Master Level medication to handle some common diseases or slightly difficult ones is more than sufficient. But when it comes to prescribing for a baby, or treating some very challenging illnesses, it definitely makes one tremble with fear!

What if something goes wrong?

In clinical practice, there’s an iron rule: any drug with severe side effects is usually a good one that can treat illnesses and save lives. Those drugs that claim to cure all without side effects, you should just listen and ignore.

When you’re sick, never choose them.

"Will, will it really take just three days to see results? That’s great, that’s great! Please prescribe the medication for us, we’re willing to stay in your clinic."

The child’s grandmother had been seeking medical treatment for days, going through two major hospitals without success.

She was already extremely anxious.

At this moment, hearing Li Jingsheng say that results might be seen in three days, she was immediately thrilled.

"My small clinic doesn’t offer inpatient treatments and can’t admit patients. Moreover, your grandson’s illness doesn’t require hospitalization; just coming over for regular check-ups will do."

Li Jingsheng’s words made the child’s grandmother even happier.

Hospitalization is indeed a very distressing experience.

Accompanying family members at the hospital for several days can make even a healthy person sick.

After further diagnosis of the baby, Li Jingsheng confirmed that the diagnosis should be correct, and then he prescribed the treatment.

Loratadine tablets and Levocetirizine Hydrochloride can alleviate allergy symptoms to some extent, especially for patients who have been allergic for over a month. Some medication can yield good results.

However, these two drugs are commonly used in clinical practice for children over 2 years and adults.

Clinically, there aren’t many drugs specifically developed for infants.

Many are general-purpose for humans.

However, the medication contraindications will specify that pregnant women, breastfeeding women, and people with hypertension should not use them, and so on.

Pregnant women should avoid taking medication recklessly, mainly due to fears of causing deformities in the unborn baby.

If the child is born with problems, it would be a huge disaster for any family.

Ultimately, Li Jingsheng prescribed loratadine tablets for oral administration to the child.

It was administered in the clinic by Tang Ping.

At the same time, calamine lotion was applied externally to assist with the treatment.

Then, he provided the family with some specific plans.

Stop feeding milk products, it is best to continue breastfeeding. Then prevent the child and adults from coming into contact with dairy products to avoid causing allergies again.

Considering the child is too young and there might be emergencies or accidents.

Li Jingsheng had the family note down the clinic’s phone number.

Actually, it was his personal number.

Call anytime if there’s an issue.

The charges are not cheap, but the medication costs little. The earnings come from skill and risk.

He temporarily charged 1800 yuan.

For treating such a high-risk illness, charging just twenty or thirty yuan would mean his small clinic couldn’t survive.

Compared to the exorbitant fees of large hospitals, if he can truly cure the child’s illness, the 1800 yuan is fully worth it for the family.

It’s even lower than they could imagine.

After the child took the medication, they were observed for a while, and with no issues, Li Jingsheng allowed the family to take the child home.

Return for check-ups every day after 10 a.m.

Because before 10 a.m., he needs to "advance" at the Second Hospital.

Bone Setting skills, earning him 600 yuan today.

Treating the baby’s allergy here earned another 1800 yuan, deducting costs, the gross profit should exceed 2000 yuan.

The treatment for this baby is not a one-time deal but includes follow-up treatment and check-ups for a week or two.
