‘The world’s biggest social media platform is being used as a gigantic virtual megaphone by hundreds of concerned parents who are reporting serious side effects from giving their child a medicine, after one mother’s Facebook safety warning.
As reported by the UK’s Daily Mail, Alison Smith took to the social media site to voice concerns after her four-month-old son Jensen lost consciousness following a 2.5 ml dose of Galhparm’s Junior Ibuprofen.
The Daily Mail reported that medical staff spent 45 minutes fighting to help Jensen regain consciousness.
