Morphine?
Hi.
My baby cousin has been in hospital for 12 days now, things keep going wrong but he has now been on pretty much continuous morphine for 12 days.
I am just wondering for my own peace of mind, how much morphine is really safe for prolonged periods? Could he suffer withdrawal after 12 days? Or even longer, cos we don't know when he will be allowed home, they still haven't fixed him properly yet. Are there any side effects he might have? He is 13 months old.
I know the rule about not posting about others but he's only a baby and it's really just for my own peace of mind.
