Guest guest Posted January 23, 2006 Report Share Posted January 23, 2006 Okay, I have another concern. My son will be starting on a Rx to speed up the food moving from his stomach into his small intestine to see if he will be hungry more often and therefore, will consume more calories. He will take this 3 times a day before meals, 1 time being at school before lunch. At our school, all Rx must be administered by the office. The secretary will pour the pill into her hand then put it into a papercup and hand it to the student to take. She does not wash her hands immediately prior to doing this. I am concerned if she has been handling and sealing mailing envelopes, this could cross- contaminate the pill that she puts in her hand. Am I being too worried about this? He is old enough to pour the pill out in the cup, let her see that he has the right dosage, and then take it without anyone touching it. I don't want to sound too demanding about this but I think I need to make them aware of it. What's everyone's input? I don't want to make waves but I need to make sure he is not getting any gluten. Thanks for your input! Judy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
