Did you know there is a Yellow Card app for reporting suspected adverse drug reactions (download from the Apple App Store or Google Play Store) – remember, only a suspicion is needed to report a suspected reaction.

@arianna_kaye @DrLindaDykes @em_j_b @apjashley1 I can’t say for certain with taz without more reading however phenytoin is the classic example where over dilution can cause precipitation. Co factors aid the solubility of phenytoin and if you dilute too far then concentration is too low to work.

🎉Transplant Marble Run 🎉

Emma’s idea has come to life with the help of Hayley’s family.
