"A lot of the problem with the misuse comes from people dosing according to age and not weight.
The efficacy and safety of the drugs themselves isn't so much the issue, although dextromethorphan is really considered to be useless in children, it's that they're not being dosed properly.
The problem is mainly that with kids that young, their weights change often and quickly, and parents have to estimate."
"
I understand that even the best stocking team in the world isn't going to have everything in the right place all the time, because customers will move things around.
I work retail and sometimes I'm left scratching my head at what's supposed to be on the hook/shelf/in the bin at other stores."
