Brief Answer:
We recommend not more than 60mg daily!

Detailed Answer:
HI and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about what happened to your son. This is such an unfortunate event and I wish this had never happened. For sure the pain is real and so so much but I hope you are slowly coming to terms and getting over it. We never recommend more than 60mg daily and for him to have that much rase serious questions. How he got it is surprising but such high doses are able to cause severe respiratory depression and death. Am surprised he didn't use it. Ask for an investigation into how he possibly obtained it!

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be. Above all, thanks for using our services.

Brief Answer:
Difficult to tell what transpired!

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

It is difficult to tell what transpired as the blood tests show something else that your son was totally never being prescribed. How that happened is a mystery. I will suggest that you request a rerun of these tests to tell what the exact problem is and review bearing in mind he was never on this medication.

I hope to hear back from you. Am so sorry for your pain and the loss!
