Septic Shock and Morphine

[AndersSolem]

Ladies, gents,

I'm a law student from Denmark in the middle of a case. I'm not a doctor, but I hope you could advise me.

my client was dangerously sick with septic shock and he contacted his local doctor, who then gave him a massive shot of morphine. This is dangerous, as far as I've understood?
Please advice

I'm all for helping people, but this really isn't a place for getting medical advice or free consulting for a law case.

Plus, this is the pre-medical forum and none of us have medical training yet as we're all still trying to get into medical school at this point. It would be best to find a qualified, licensed physician in your own country to ask these questions as the standard of care might be different depending on location.

As noted above, SDN is not for medical advice and we could not advise you on your case, or discuss standards of care outside of the US. Please seek the advise of a licensed Danish medical practitioner.
