Features: To enable children and their parents to use over-the-counter (OTC) drugs more safely and effectively, the book introduces the clinical manifestations and basic diagnostic and treatment knowledge of common pediatric diseases. In the first part of the book, it presents the national OTC drug directory, which includes 165 Western medicine varieties in 23 categories and 160 traditional Chinese medicine varieties. Among these, there are 13 Western medicine varieties and 16 traditional Chinese medicine varieties related to gynecology and contraception. Although these drugs are primarily for gynecology and adult use, the authors consider it necessary to list them in the national OTC drug directory for readers to familiarize themselves with these medications. The book emphasizes the relationship between OTC drugs and common household illnesses, focusing on practicality and hands-on application. It serves as a reference for parents, caregivers, and pediatricians.
