KidsWorldMD understands than many people think of medications as the miracle to good health and a long and happy life. Medications are known to relieve pain,fight infections, promote healing and build up the body's defenses. Many diseases have been eradicated because of the intervention of medicine and some diseases that were once thought of as fatal can now be treated. Each year the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approves a new list of medication that is considered safe for human consumption.

As the list of medications grow, the chances of drug interaction and side effects of the drug increases. It should be remembered that these medications are often foreign substances to the body, and it is not uncommon for the body to reject or respond to these properties. KidsWorldMD recognizes that some form of medication is taken daily by the majority of the population.
