Question:

Are there any pediatricians in the saint louis, mo area that don't prescribe traditional medicine.?


Answers:

all pediatricians can prescribe medicine for your children, but if you don't want them to take it, then don't give it to them. Mostly prescription medicine for colds and viruses is just stronger versions than the over the counter stuff. It's just that all kids and adults are different, and your doctor just wants to make sure you or your child is healthy enough to take a stronger med. Also, the only reason why you can't get anitibotics over the counter is because if every time we got sick or had a cold, we took an antibotic, our bodies would become immune to the anitbotic and it would not work anymore. So if you were to get really sick, there would be nothing they could do for you. Prescription medicine like cough syrup and otc meds don't cure you, they just make your symptoms go away, making you not feel so bad.
