JAKARTA (The Straits Times/Asia News Network): Indonesia is hoping to procure another 70 vials of an antidote from Singapore to treat children with acute kidney injury (AKI), speed up their recovery and reduce the fatality rate.
In the past two weeks, Indonesia secured a total of 30 vials of fomepizole from Singapore. The drug is used to treat ethylene glycol poisoning.
