Parents, critics demand fix to kids’ pain medication shortage ahead of Canada’s flu season
Becca Travadi, also from Calgary, said she resorted to non-medicinal treatments when her six-year-old recently fell sick and is uncertain what the fall and winter season could bring.“It’s terrifying, like, I don’t know what you can do,” said Travadi, who expects more illnesses to circulate in schools now that masks are largely off.
“I know it’s frustrating for everyone, but it’s not that dire. We still have so many other options and there’s still drugs in the system. It’s just not on all the shelves…. Realistically this is probably not the drug you want to pull all the levers for.”This report by The Canadian Press was first published Oct. 5, 2022.
