Q. What are the effects of heroin addiction? I just found out that one of my block mates has been using heroin to keep her up all night just so she can study for our exams. But I don't think it's doing her any good. I asked her if she wanted to talk about it, but she refused. I would like to help her get out of heroin addiction while she still can.

A. the most damaging effect of heroin addiction is the addiction itself. The continuous increase in doses would also increase the physical damage it causes and the user's dependence to it, as well.
Her feelings will be numb and she won’t have a problem steeling from her family, selling herself for heroin, very unpleasant things.
So I do hope you get to convince your friend to stop and get treatment as soon as possible –her life depends on it!
Good luck.

Q. What Are Common Side Effects of Antibiotics? My 5 year old son had an ear infection and was given antibiotics for a few days. What are the known side effects for some of the common antibiotics?

A. Possible side effects of antibiotic medications are varied, depending on the antibiotics used and the microbial organisms we wish to treat. Adverse effects can range from fever and nausea to major allergic reactions. The most common side effects are gastrointestinal- mostly nausea, vomiting, “upset stomach” and diarrhea. Allergic reactions can be mild (rash) and rarely severe (anaphylactic shock). Some antibiotics can cause kidney damage, however this is also very rare.
