10 year old Gabrielle Delacour has come to the Hogsmead Clinic accompanied by her older sister and guardian Fleur Delacour. You are a health care professional attending to your patient Gabrielle. Fleur asks why every time her sister Gabrielle has a sore throat, she also ends up having an ear infection 1. How do you explain why this is happening to Gabrielle? 2. You assess Gabrielle and give her the appropriate ear drops. Fleur wants to know if she can use the ear drops at a cold temperature to relieve the earache. What is the best answer to her question? When reviewing Gabrielle's chart, you see that she has a history of dizziness during previous ear infections. She had also been previously prescribed Anti-Vert, which she takes when she feels dizzy Gabrielle tells you that she doesn't like to take it because she gets sleepy after taking the medication. 3. Would you tell Gabrielle that this sleepiness in normal? Why or why not?

Answer 1

1. The reason for her recurrent sore throat and ear infection is her weak immunity because of which she catches up the infection fast .

2. Every medication has its own action and is given or prescribed according to the complaints of the patient . Here in this case Gabrielle has ear infection and for that this ear drops are being given to relieve her infection and pain

3. The sleepiness is the side effect of the medication ,but it does not mean that you should stop taking the medication . Take the medication at night if it causes drowsiness and if it's more than what you can handle see a physician and ask for an another medicine .
