Votmine
Mum seek clinical consultation, was given Charcoal Tab, Domperidone (Motilium) & Dhaperazine (Stemetil) and given an injection of Votmine Inj 50mg/ml (Dimenate) as she was really sicked with headache and very high blood pressure. She had double strokes 4 hours later after the consultation. Does those drugs help reduce high pressure?? Why did the GP not send her straight to hospital for proper medical attention?
