"There's another possibility: drinking more water to increase the frequency of excretion can also reduce the effects of the medication," Gu Ran said.
"Thank goodness it was discovered in time," Chen Ke sighed in relief.
Hiding medication is very dangerous; it can lead to doctors thinking that a certain dosage is ineffective, causing them to increase the dosage. Then, when the patient suddenly stops hiding the medication and takes it, the consequences could be unpredictable.
The least that could happen is over-sedation, but it could also lead to a medical incident.
"Let's switch to injections in the future," Chen Ke suggested to Wang Jiajia in a negotiating tone.
"Okay!" Wang Jiajia was quite scared.
In addition to caring for Xie Xiya alongside Meiyangyang, Hu Qian was her first real patient responsibility, and now there was an incident of medication hiding.
Had it been experienced nurses like Wang Yi or Li Hui, maybe they would have detected the issue earlier.
