Medicine Only from Grown-Ups | Medicine Safety for Kids | Doktor Bulilit

Achoo! Pip has a cold. Medicine can help us get better when we're sick or hurt, but medicine must only come from a grown-up! In this cartoon, Doc Ming and Pip teach kids how to stay safe with medicine: the right medicine, the right amount, at the right time. Learn who can give you medicine (a parent, grandparent or caregiver, a doctor or nurse, and a school nurse only with your parent's permission), why medicine is never candy, even when it looks like candy, and what to do if you find pills on the floor: don't touch, don't taste, and tell a grown-up!
