How to use over-the-counter medicines is a special commodity used to treat, prevent, diagnose, and regulate the physiological functions of the body. It is more reasonable to select specific medicines according to the illness under the prescribed amount and method of use. Drugs are divided into prescription drugs and over-the-counter drugs. Prescription drugs must be adjusted, purchased, and used in the doctor's prescription; non-prescription drugs can be purchased and used according to their own judgments, which can treat some common minor diseases. International calls this kind of medicine available on the counter "Over The Counter", or "OTC" for short.
Prescription drugs and over-the-counter drugs are not the essential attributes of drugs, but the management definition. However, both prescription drugs and over-the-counter drugs have been approved by the State Drug Administration, and their safety and effectiveness are guaranteed. The classified management is only to strengthen the management of prescription drugs, so that consumers can use drugs rationally and scientifically, which facilitates the problem of drug use by the masses, and can buy drugs for treatment of minor diseases in a timely manner.
Over-the-counter drugs can be divided into Class A and Class B, and are classified as Class B with higher safety. Such drugs can be seen in supermarkets, hotels, and department stores.
Each drug has two standard names, one is the generic name, and the other is the chemical name. For aspirin, the common name is aspirin, and the chemical name is acetylsalicylic acid. Common names refer to international non-proprietary names that can be used universally in the world. The general name of the drug must be indicated on the instructions for each drug, and the general name of the drug must be clarified when purchasing the drug.
The names of different manufacturers or different dosage forms of the same drug will also be different, that is, different brand names of what we usually refer to will also differ. The most commonly used drug is the product name when it is being promoted. Many people will have a misunderstanding in this case: they think that the drug type is different according to the product name. In this case, it is likely to take different brands and types at the same time. The same medicine, which in turn increases the amount of medicine used, causing harm to the body. Therefore, if you do not understand the composition of the drug or want to use it in combination, you must consult a professional.
We all know that each medicine has its own unique toxicity. Although over-the-counter medicines can be purchased and taken on their own, it does not mean that they are safe. The adverse reactions of over-the-counter drugs are mainly manifested in the following aspects.
1. Drug side effects. When the medicine is used within the normal dosage range, it has no effect on disease prevention.
2. Allergic reactions. Also called allergic reactions. A few patients with specific constitutions have abnormal reactions to certain medicines. For example, most people will not have adverse reactions when taking aspirin, but a few people will have fever, asthma, leukopenia, rashes, and even allergies. Sexual shock.
3. Drug secondary infection. If you take a large amount of broad-spectrum antibacterial drugs for a long time, the body's sensitive bacteria will be killed, and insensitive bacteria and fungi will multiply in large numbers, and new infections will appear, such as thrush and staphylococcal enteritis.
4. Toxic effects. Drugs usually do not have toxic effects on the human body within the commonly used dosage range, and toxic effects may occur when the drugs are taken in excess or for too long. For example, acetaminophen is toxic to the kidney; streptomycin and gentamicin are also toxic to the kidney.
5. Teratogenic effect. Many medicines will cause certain harm to the fetus, so pregnant women must be careful when taking the medicine.
After introducing the toxic and side effects of over-the-counter medicines to the body, let's introduce the correct use methods and precautions in the different formulations of over-the-counter medicines.
For the convenience of treatment and use, the raw materials are made into different preparations, which are called "dosage forms" in pharmacy. Such as oral tablets, capsules, sprays, eye drops, nasal drops, ointments, creams, patches and so on.
Oral tablets, capsules, granules, etc. should be taken with water. Usually, half a cup of warm boiling water is used for delivery. The amount of water is too small, and the pills can easily stay on the intestinal wall to stimulate the intestine and delay the effect.
When using the spray, it should be aligned according to the position shown in the instruction manual. Pressing the sprayer button by hand should be synchronized with the inhalation, so as to prevent the medicine from falling into the oral cavity and affecting the curative effect. Some medicines cannot be taken until chewed or crushed. Enteric-coated tablets, enteric-coated capsules, sustained-release tablets, or capsules cannot be chewed or crushed, otherwise their efficacy may be lost, so they must be taken strictly according to instructions.
The instructions for the drug are usually marked on the instructions of the drug, such as when to be used with caution, who is disabled, and possible adverse reactions. Patients with poor liver or kidney or heart function should pay attention to the use of the drug, because these patients It is possible that one or more of these adverse reactions may occur due to weak detoxification function in the body. Use extreme caution when using such drugs, discontinue the drug promptly when problems occur, and consult your physician.
If the word "prohibited" is indicated on the instructions, it means that the use is forbidden. It is likely that serious adverse reactions may occur after medication, and even lead to poisoning.
Elderly people usually use more medicine than young people, so the correct use of over-the-counter medicines is very important for the elderly. Of course, when using over-the-counter medicines, the elderly must first understand their purpose: to understand their condition and the role of the medicine; secondly, to choose the dosage in strict accordance with the instructions of the medicine, the memory of the elderly is relatively poor, some Sometimes I forget to take the medicine and take a double dose of the medicine, which leads to adverse consequences. If an adverse reaction occurs after taking the drug, it should be stopped in time for medical treatment.
