The old man uses medicine to must know safely
The statistics show, our country 50 million in hospital patient every year, have 2,500,000 admitted to hospitalling and medicine bad reaction (ADR) of people at least Relevant, serious disease ADR 500,000 people among them, 190,000 people die, the elderly's quantity is more than 3 times higher than that of the adult among them, cause death in all ADR and take half in the case. So, the elderly's rational administration is a clinical problem demanding prompt solution. The elderly suffer from more diseases, it is corresponding and many too that use medicine. But it is just right to use medicine, could get rid of illness and contribute to longevity, otherwise, will bring the damage to body. According to the characteristic of the elderly, should pay attention to the following several respect while using medicine: ( 1) Use medicines rationally: Don't think medicine to be expensive and kind, want, direct condition against, select medicine rationally. Some old men meet a lot of questions independent of disease, can often cause nervously or downcastly, as to this not need administration to cure. Even it suffer from disease when it must treat by medicine,some is can oral needn't last medicine injection. It is rational and appropriate that the administration should pay attention to. Old disease has its inherent characteristics, such as mood changing, appetite failing, insomnia, dizzy, asthma, having palpitation, weak, constipation, polyuria and symptom,etc., the treatment wants two respects from spirit and medicine to be set about at the same time. The administration should vary with each individual too, generally speaking, the physique is thin, thin and weak, old man of the anaemia, deficiency of vital energy, must guard against the Great Cold, big and cool, disperses, the high medicine that rushed down. The physique is fat, sturdy or old man of hypertension, hyperlipemia, high cholesterol, should careful with big and warm big and hot rising medicining nourished to withdraw. ( 2) The dosage of using medicine: Fail because of liver renal functions of the elderly, drop to the supersession ability of medicine, renal excretion is relatively slow too, so with the intersection of medicine and than should reduce to some extent while being between twenty and fifty, use medicine kind should not too much either quantity the elderly. It is various in style to use medicine at the same time, it is many that chances of the side effect take place, therefore may produce some bad responses. So, the elderly, especially suffer from the old man of the chronic organic disease, can't follow one's bent while using medicine. Otherwise, attend to one thing and lose sight of another, very harmful. The elderly's administration measures the general provision: Since 50 years old, every increase should reduce 1% of adult's consumption in a year old; Use 1/3 of adult's consumption over 60; Use 1/4 of adult's consumption over 70; Use 1/5 of adult's consumption over 80. ( 3) The method to give medicine: The elderly suffer from chronic disease, seldom maintain that uses the intravenous bit and injects the method intramuscularly and give medicine. But infect with the hyperpyrexia,etc. such as suffering from acute disease, acute, need intravenous route to give medicine. This is because the elderly's muscles are relatively bad to the absorbability of the medicine, pain is relatively written or apt to take shape to harden after injecting, so, should try hard to reduce and inject to medicines. ( 4) The side effect produced after paying attention to using medicine: The elderly should pay special attention to medicine that is never used. If present the side effect, should stop medicines in time. Have already caused the side effect, especially caused the medicine of allergic response, must not reuse. In addition should avoid using medicine for a long time, so as not to produce and accumulate and poisoned. The elderly should generally adopt to suffer from chronic disease temporarily or use medicine. ( 5) Don't abuse tonics: As the saying goes: " medicine is mended and not so good as the tonic " . It is the natural law in the life course to be old and feeble, the old and feeble one relates to heredity and environmental factor sooner or later. Nourish the body, so that the method not always not real of the long life with the medicine. Take tonics arbitrarily at the same time, will bring manily and endanger, for example: Take nutrition and tonify medicines in a large amount for a long time, will bring out many ossicle hyperplasia in the body.
