TL;DR: After child deaths in Madhya Pradesh & Rajasthan, cough syrup samples were tested — no toxic chemicals found. Experts still warn: stop using strong syrups for kids without doctor advice ⚠️.

Main Story

👶 Panic spread after reports of child deaths linked to cough syrups. Health officials suspected toxic chemicals — Diethylene Glycol (DEG) and Ethylene Glycol (EG) — notorious for past poisoning incidents.

🧪 But here’s relief: tests found no traces of these toxins in the syrups collected. Investigations showed the syrups were made from safe ingredients, though one case involved leptospirosis, a bacterial infection, not poisoning.

💉 Flashback:DEG and EG are industrial solvents used in paints and brake fluids — not medicines. When used by mistake or for cost-cutting, they can cause kidney failure and death, especially in children.

🧠 People’s Angle:Parents everywhere are asking — Are our kids’ medicines really safe?Doctors say: avoid self-medicating and never give adult syrups to kids. Many cough syrups contain dextromethorphan, unsafe for children under 6.

💬 MediaFx Take:Even when tests are clear, the trust gap remains. India needs stricter drug checks and better parent awareness. Health is not just about curing — it’s about caring with caution ❤️.
