Given Antibiotic Injection For Lung Infection. Got Seizure Attack And Went To Coma. Any Thoughts?

Anything O would have done could have been guided by the maximum sound scientific knowledge, morals, conscience and my code of medical medical. All I do is seeing into the betterment of the psychological, physical and mental health status of my patients.
I would have offered the best medical care I could such circumstances, informed the necessary step in the medical hierarchy for a probable evacuation under ideal medical conditions to an intensive care unit, with more varied clinical specialties for proper management. I think what gives satisfaction to a medical practitioner, especially under such difficult circumstances is seeing the patient better again. One at this point uses both medical, social and philosophical sciences, all in the utmost interest of the patient.

I think taking her home, not being very sure that she has become stable clinically is NOT good idea. She should be by a professional or under condition she could be monitored and interventions done nto improve her health whn necessary.
If an anti biotic can actually be inrminated in causing a seizure or leading to coma, there is no point giving the anti botic. The usual thing is its is rare, and other predisposing conditions could be ignored, and this ould lead to a false accusation of antibiotics as causative agents for the seizures or comas.
However, here are drugs that cause seizures or comas. these are howver rare events,. Other common causes of these scenarios must therefore be excluded before rare situations considered.
