In addition to cephalosporin, do not drink alcohol when taking these medicines!

After the eighth year, relatives and friends get together to eat, and it is inevitable to push the cup and change the cup. And if you or your family and friends happen to be taking medicine, then pay attention: taking medicine and drinking alcohol are not worthy at all. Especially if you are taking the following medicines, you should never drink alcohol!

In addition to cephalosporin, do not drink alcohol when taking these medicines!

1

Cephalosporins

Most cephalosporins contain a disulfiram-like chemical structure of methiotetrazole groups, which may cause disulfiram-like reactions if alcohol is consumed before and after taking the drug. Disulfiram-like reaction refers to the fact that some drugs have a chemical structure similar to disulfiram, and if you drink alcohol after taking the drug, you may have facial flushing, conjunctival congestion, blurred vision, severe pulsation of blood vessels in the head and neck or pulsating headache, dizziness, nausea, vomiting, dyspnea, convulsions, and even death. Once disulfiram-like reaction occurs, the drug should be stopped and alcohol-containing products should be stopped in time, and the light can be relieved by itself, and the heavier ones need to be sent to the hospital for oxygen and symptomatic treatment.

Special reminder should not be given to the use of cephalosporins within 3 days after drinking alcohol. Do not drink alcohol for 7 days, and prohibit drugs and foods containing alcohol, such as eating wine heart chocolate, taking Huoxiang zhengqi water, using injections containing ethanol in excipients, and using alcohol to treat the skin.

In addition, nitridazoles such as metronidazole, tinidazole, and ethanol may also have disulfiram-like reactions and should be used separately.

Acetaminophen tablets

Acetaminophen tablets are the ingredient used in most cold medicines to reduce fever and are also commonly used to relieve mild to moderate pain (such as joint pain, migraines, etc.). Studies have shown that alcohol consumption has the potential to increase acetaminophen hepatotoxicity.

In addition to cephalosporin, do not drink alcohol when taking these medicines!

3

Antihypertensive drugs

Excessive alcohol consumption has the effect of dilating blood vessels, inhibiting sympathetic nerves and vascular motor centers, and weakening myocardial contractility. If you take hypotensive drugs after drinking, it will make the small blood vessels more dilated, the blood volume is further reduced, the blood pressure drops sharply, and it is easy to have orthostatic hypotension or syncope.

In addition to cephalosporin, do not drink alcohol when taking these medicines!

4

aspirin

There are pharmacokinetic interactions and certain pharmacodynamic interactions between aspirin and ethanol.

The intake of any concentration of ethanol will increase the irritation of the digestive tract, easily cause gastric mucosal lesions or recur ulcers, and increase the risk of upper gastrointestinal bleeding associated with aspirin.

5

Sedative hypnotics

After the combination of sedative hypnotic drugs and ethanol, the degree of inhibition of the center is related to the type of drug, the amount of medication, and the amount of alcohol consumed, which is manifested by increased drowsiness, decreased response sensitivity, distraction, poor coordination ability, and even death.

6

Antiepileptic drugs

Ethanol can affect the metabolism of certain antiepileptic drugs, thereby affecting efficacy.

In addition, drinking alcohol itself may also cause seizures.

Therefore, people with epilepsy are not suitable for drinking alcohol.

7

Hypoglycemic drugs

Drinking alcohol while taking sulfonylureas can cause severe hypoglycemia or irreversible neurologic lesions. Because ethanol can hinder the conversion of glycerol, lactic acid, and certain amino acids into sugars, it can also cause a "disulfiram-like reaction."

In summary, ethanol can alter the response of many drugs, and heavy alcohol consumption can affect the biotransformation of many drugs. During the medication, you should carefully read the instructions and inform the doctor of your recent drinking history in time at the time of treatment. During the administration of the above drugs, alcohol consumption should be avoided so as not to cause serious adverse reactions.
