Stating that the patient had already developed Steven Johnson Syndrome even before she was brought to the hospital, the medical

superintendent in charge, Dr V Palani said

Investigation shall be conducted by third person so that the truth would come out,the medical records should be seized and taken into custody of the independent investigating officer so as to see that the medical records are not maipulated to suit the needs and requirements of the doctors.Since the case involves medical negligence.Impartial investigation has to be conducted at the earliest.

Naringenin, an antioxidant derived from the bitter flavor of grapefruits and other citrus fruits, may cause the liver to break down fat while increasing insulin sensitivity, a process that naturally occurs during long periods of fasting.

Hello all,
This report has been a totally infamous one slandering the doctor and hospital alike owing to the medical ignorance of the public and publicity seekingn plaintiff.

I have known Dr. Chandrika for the past 20 years both as my Physician and a family friend. She is wonderful both ways.

Medically SJS is medium to rare and is ethnically related. The SJS was more on account of protracted Carbamepazine use by the patient for her epilepsy than a simple drug IMOL which is administered even to infants. Patient being medically unaware had failed to mention his epileptic history.

Whether the death was on account of SJS induced septicemia or the previously existant epilepsy is ambigous. Since it is impossible to claim compensation of the Govt hospital, the plaintiff has done so from the private one.
