During the inspection, 18 out of 21 children with acute respiratory diseases in our country died as a result of drinking Dok-1 Max syrup.
The deceased children took this drug together with other medicines at home, 3-4 times a day, 2.5-5 milliliters, for 2-7 days. Naturally, this is a little more than the norm for a child.
All children were given the drug without a doctor's prescription. Because the main substance in the composition of the drug is paracetamol, Dok-1 Max syrup was incorrectly used by parents as an anti-cold remedy independently or on the recommendation of pharmacists. This caused the condition of the patients to worsen.
