Article 37: Contraindications of Water Used for Medication, Cautions in the Use of Antipyretics and Analgesics, and Drug-Induced Diseases
It is not advisable to take medicine with tea.
Oral medications are generally prescribed to be taken with plain water, but some people...
Taking medicine with tea is actually inappropriate.
Because tea contains a large amount of tannic acid.
It encounters heavy metals (iron,
Lead, copper, silver, zinc, etc.) or alkaloids (quinine, dehydromorphine, strychnine, etc.)
At times, it can form insoluble precipitates and can also precipitate proteins, hindering drug delivery.
Absorption of substances reduces the efficacy of the drug.
Many Chinese and Western medicines used in clinical practice are
Those containing alkaloids or heavy metals, such as Codonopsis pilosula, Uncaria rhynchophylla, Coptis chinensis, Cirsium japonicum, and Cirsium setosum.
Some contain alkaloids; ferrous sulfate, ferrous carbonate, and ferrous iron contain...
Heavy metals, and much more.
Therefore, to prevent interference with treatment when taking medication.
It's best not to use tea to achieve the desired effect.
Use antipyretics and analgesics with caution
Pain relievers, APC (compound acetylsalicylic acid tablets, antipyretic analgesics), aminopyrine
Prescription drugs are commonly used antipyretics and analgesics. These drugs are inexpensive and can be taken without a prescription.
It can be purchased freely from pharmacies, which easily leads to abuse and causes drug-induced diseases.
Illness can sometimes lead to drug dependence.
APC contains acetylsalicylic acid, phenacetin, caffeine, and is a pain reliever.
It contains aminopyrine, phenacetin, caffeine, and phenobarbital.
All of these products are preparations containing phenacetin.
Long-term use of these medications can cause...
Renal papillary necrosis, interstitial nephritis, and may even induce kidney cancer and bladder cancer.
Phenacetin also easily causes hemoglobin to form methemoglobin, making the blood carry...
Decreased oxygenation capacity causes cyanosis.
In addition, phenacetin can also cause hemolysis and
Hemolytic anemia has a certain degree of toxicity to the retina.
Therefore, in 1982, my country
Phenacetin tablets were among the 127 drugs phased out that year, but APC was not phased out.
And painkillers, however, many pharmacopoeias warn patients that "they should not be taken for a long time or..."
Take in large doses.
Analgin contains aminopyrine and sodium sulfite, and pain relievers also contain these substances.
Aminopyrine.
Aminopyrine has adverse effects on the hematopoietic system and on a small number of patients.
It can cause agranulocytosis and aplastic anemia in humans, which can be fatal.
Furthermore, aminopyrine can produce carcinogenic substances when it reacts with food under acidic conditions in the stomach.
Nitrosamine compounds.
Therefore, my country phased out this drug in 1982.
Tablets and injections were available, but compound analgesics such as analgesics and aminopyrine were not phased out.
However, using
These types of medications should also be used with caution, and blood tests should be performed when necessary to prevent adverse reactions.
fruit.
For these antipyretic analgesics, try to avoid using them if you don't necessarily need them.
use.
For example, some people have headaches, but after rest, massage, activity, or changing their environment, the headache may subside.
If the symptoms can be relieved by other factors, medication is not necessary.
Otherwise, prolonged use may cause adverse effects.
It can easily lead to drug dependence.
What are drug-induced diseases?
During the course of treatment or diagnosis, humans may experience adverse reactions due to drugs or medications.
Adverse reactions unrelated to the therapeutic purpose caused by the interaction, leading to...
Functional or organic damage occurs in a certain organ or local tissue of the body.
The various symptoms that occur are called "drug-induced diseases".
The main drugs that cause drug-induced diseases vary from country to country.
some
According to national statistics, digitalis, antibiotics, insulin, and diuretics account for a significant portion of drug-induced cancer cases.
90% of the total number of cases.
In some countries, the most common drug is digoxin.
Aspirin, prednisone, warfarin, and guanethidine.
Some believe that drug-induced diseases in my country are largely caused by drug allergies.
A large proportion of these cases involved anaphylactic shock, followed by various skin types.
Damage and drug-induced gastrointestinal diseases.
The drugs that cause disease, in order of their importance, are:
Antibiotics, antipyretics, analgesics, and sedative-hypnotic drugs.
In antibiotics, the main
Caused by penicillin, followed by tetracyclines and chloramphenicol; antipyretics and analgesics.
Aminopyrine plays a prominent role in the film; barbiturates are the main analgesic and hypnotic drugs.
It is important.
Drug-induced diseases are influenced by gender and age.
Women are more prone to
It can cause drug-induced diseases.
For granulocytopenia caused by phenylbutazone and chloramphenicol
Aplastic anemia, with women being three times more likely to develop the disease than men; chloramphenicol-induced aplastic anemia.
Obstructive anemia is twice as common in women as in men; drug-induced lupus erythematosus is more common in women than in men.
It is more likely to happen to men.
In terms of age, people over 60 years old are more likely to be affected than others.
Drug-induced diseases are more likely to occur in this age group.
The incidence of digitalis poisoning in the elderly is higher than that in the elderly.
Young people are more likely to develop hypokalemia; older people are more likely to develop hypokalemia than younger people when using diuretics.
Orthostatic hypotension is also likely to occur in elderly people when they use antihypertensive drugs.
The principles for treating drug-induced diseases are:
1. If you suspect the illness is caused by medication, but cannot determine which medication it is.
If this occurs, all medications should be discontinued to prevent further damage.
Symptoms after stopping medication
If the symptoms lessen, it suggests a drug-induced illness.
2. Drug-induced diseases are often self-limiting, and mostly present with mild symptoms. Discontinuation of the medication usually resolves the condition.
No special treatment is required afterwards.
In severe cases, symptomatic treatment should be administered to promote drug excretion and prevent further illness.
If the medication is clearly identified, an antagonist can be used.
3. If an allergic reaction occurs, prevent future use.
