The Health authorities have been compelled to withhold the use of an antibiotic following a death of a patient at the Gampaha District Hospital.
According to Director General of Health Services Dr Asela Gunawardena, the patient had died after developing an allergic reaction to the medicine which was later withheld.
A spokesman from the hospital told Daily Mirror that the patient was admitted to the Gampaha District Hospital on August 6 for wound treatment.
However, the patient passed away after an allergic reaction to an antibiotic that was administered during his treatment.
As such, the use of the specific antibiotic has been temporarily discontinued. (Sheain Fernandopulle)

Dr. Rambukwella keeps on saying deaths of patients did not occur because of medicines of low quality. So, he admits that he has purchased medicines of low quality. However, he does not have to worry. Corrupt and illiterate buds will vote against the NCM.

Hospitals are experimenting drugs on innocent patients and if the patient dies, then they withdraw the specific drug temporarily or continue to experiment them until another patient dies.

Was this the first time this antibiotic was administered? The authorities should investigate whether this death affected the financial, economic status of the family and due compensation be given to the victims family.
