I talked about a lot of medicinal properties of Chinese medicine, such as four qi, five tastes, ups and downs, medicinal properties and so on. Today, let's talk about the toxicity of drugs, which is also a special need for clinical drugs. At the same time, it is also the focus of the fervent attention of the broad masses. Don't get sick and untreated, put your life in it!
In fact, the word poison was first used to describe the general term of all drugs, not a separate drug with toxic side effects, and the toxicity of drugs at that time was a bias of "poison". This view is still quite different from the current view. With the summary of the experience of successive generations of doctors, with the development of science and medicine, people's understanding of poisons has gradually become clear, and the so-called toxicity generally refers to the adverse reactions of drugs to the body and the damage caused to the body. Includes some acute toxicity, subacute toxicity and chronic toxicity. At the same time, there are also some special toxicities such as carcinogenicity, teratogenicity, addiction and so on. Many of these serious consequences are irreversible and need to be carefully and carefully identified when using clinical drugs.
Since the classification of toxic drugs, it is natural to distinguish them in detail, and the toxicity is divided into four categories: large poison, common poison, small poison, and non-toxic. Today's Pharmacopoeia of the People's Republic of China divides toxicity into three categories: large poison, toxic, and small poison. Regardless of the classification method, it is the conclusion of the accumulation of clinical drugs and the in-depth toxicity study.
Drugs are toxic, and we must treat them correctly. In order to ensure the safety of medication. First of all, we must correctly evaluate the toxicity of drugs, although most drugs are safe, but still can not hide the toxicity of some of their drugs. We can only face it correctly and not evade this problem in order to make the most correct choice when taking medicine. Secondly, we need to pay attention to the report and record of chinese medicine poisoning, although some drugs are non-toxic, but in clinical use of toxic side effects, but also need to be carefully recorded, analysis to find out the cause, can not be taken lightly, only by carefully summarizing experience, mutual reference, in order to more comprehensive, profound and accurate grasp of the toxicity of traditional Chinese medicine, which is extremely important to ensure safe medication.
Finally, it is also necessary to strengthen the management of poisons, such as arsenic, mercury, raw white appendages, raw southern stars, raw croton, cantharids, male yellow, etc. Some toxic drugs need to be strictly managed to avoid a large number of them from flowing into the market. This is also the premise of ensuring the safety of people's lives.
Life tips: The use of "poison to attack poison" method can treat certain diseases, under the premise of ensuring the safety of medication, for example, male yellow can treat boils, mercury can treat scabies syphilis, arsenic can treat leukemia. These must be treated under the guidance of a doctor, and must not be blindly used to avoid poisoning.
