Identification of antibiotic allergies in children using prescribing patterns in the electronic medical record

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background By age three, 5%–75% of children have a documented antibiotic allergy (AL). Despite this prevalence, recognition remains low because of limited clinician knowledge and time. Our study evaluates a novel approach to identifying AL using electronic medical record (EMR) prescription patterns.

Codeine toxicity via breast Milk: Can this occur and implications for opiate therapy in children

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Codeine is commonly used in combination analgesic products. The use of codeine during breastfeeding can rarely be associated with serious adverse effects related to genetic polymorphisms affecting codeine's metabolism and disposition. Clinicians treating infants of breastfeeding mothers should be aware of this rare but potentially serious complication.
