[|Human|] My new born girl has a WBC count of 22,000 at birth. She has been given Taxim 165 mg for 7 days via injection. Is this ok? The Doctor says there might be an infection and its a prevention they are taking for it, however there is no need to confirm the WBC count or any other culture to confirm that the Infection is gone. Please suggest.
