I took my children for flu/covid symptoms and to get specialized medication for pinworms; has all of the OTC boxes read do not give the children under two years old. The doctor checked their health condition and mainly kept talking about how hot it is and all of the parasites that are out. She Answered questions before I was done. Which made a huge difference in the understanding of the medicine to be given. Both children's antibiotic were sent to two different location. I had to call pediatrician and ask where the pinworm meds were, to then be told I needed to buy OTC. But one nurse did call me back well after all that and made sure to confirm the dosage amounts for them.
