What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? ID
My ex’s wife is a RN, but here goes anyway. Every time one of the kids gets sick, she automatically puts all there of the kids on antibiotics without them seeing a doctor. Today she sends me a text saying my 2nd son has a pus pocket on his tonsil and her doc is putting everyone in their house on Augmentin – even my daughter who has no symptoms. My 2nd son has not seen a doctor, she just looked at his throat and saw the pus pocket – which I know is an indicator that strep may be present – but I know what the side effects of Augmentin are and would prefer he see a doctor before resorting to such a strong drug, plus I don’t think she should be making that decision without talking to me first even if it’s ok with my ex. Am I over reacting, or is she over-stepping?
Also – my ex is allergic to penicillin and Augmentin should not be taken by someone allergic to penicillin…something a doctor would have asked before prescribing!
