I took Dior to the walk in centre she has been poorly for a while now. she has been crying and pulling at her ears!

i have been giving her medised which is great for helping her sleep and unblocking her nose. but she aint getting any better

at the walk in centre they said she has the start of a cold one side of her glandes(sp) are swelling and she has ear ache! they gave me some
ibuprofen. and told me to use that aswell as her medised!
as the ibuprofen has some thing better in it that medised dont have!
but still told me to combine the both.

but im concerned as i no both medised and ibuprofen are a pian killer so surley i would be over dosing her????

Any one got any advice?
or should i trust the doctor?

Call the NHS line Dionne!

I couldn't see them making a mistake like that but I think I'd worry too & want to get a second opinion if it's ok!

Yeah i couldnt see a doc telling u too take them together if it was dangerous hun, but i would do what wobbles has said an ring nhs diect.
Kai had a bad cough and cold the other day and the chemist told me not to give both cought med and medised together but the doc would know best hun.
hope she gets better soon.

i think that maybe i have got it in my head all docs are evil

i called nhs direct once before.
dior had
antibiotix - viral rash
medised - banged her head
cough medicine
heyfever medicine

all at once i was giving her these i called them to make sure it was ok they said fine as long as none of them both have paracetamol in?

thats why im confussed now as im sure medised and ibuprofen have?

but im a tramp my house phone has been cut off

il have to call nhs from my mums later

awwww bless ya
Cant u get it up online? ill have a look.

aw i hope she is ok dionne.

according to this site:

"you can use Medised and the ibuprofen together or Calpol and Ibuprofen together. It should help"

Also she said her cousin was adviced to give her son calpol and ibuprofen but if ur unsure then ring nhs when u can hun.

Ibuprofen and paracetamol work in different ways to tackle pain which means that you can take both and not overdose.

Thank you so much gi

i can rest now knowing that its ok.

another thing is medised a painkiller? as i use it when Harley is teething

What does it list in the ingredients? if it says paracetamol or ibuprofen then its a painkiller
