Doubt regarding meds
My mother recently fell down and her right elbow fractured and she underwent surgery a week back. She is now prescribed with osteri injection daily for 3 months. She is only 33kgs and underwent few Surgeries in the past. Is it safe to give her the injection daily. Can anyone please advise.
Thank you

That injection has to be given on daily basis, there is indication why it's prescribed. You can give it unless she has some side effects.

Well considering the weight , it appears that your mother is under-nourished so we can expect her to have weak bones! The prescribed injection will be helpful for her and restore her bone density reducing the chances for further fractures
