This year's epidemic seems to be more severe than the previous year.
The repeated new cases have also made many people nervous and adopt various methods to prevent the epidemic.
Especially in recent days, the emergence of various "xiaoyang people", many people have begun to look at the standard even flower Qing plague capsules or punches, thinking that it is possible to prevent new crown pneumonia by taking this.
Can Lianhua Qing plague really be used as a medicine to prevent the new crown?
In fact, Lianhua Qing plague capsules have indeed been recommended by the National Health Commission many times and written into the new crown pneumonia diagnosis and treatment plan.
On March 15, 2022, in the newly released "Diagnosis and Treatment Plan for Novel Coronavirus Pneumonia (Trial Ninth Edition)", it is clearly stipulated that for mild and ordinary patients who are in the clinical treatment period (confirmed case) and medical observation period, it is recommended to take Lianhua Qing plague capsules (or granules) as a therapeutic drug.
Therefore, it is obvious that Lianhua Qing plague capsules are only used as a drug to treat the new crown, not a preventive drug, nor are they proposed to have a preventive effect.
Generally speaking, Lianhua Qing plague capsules belong to Chinese herbal medicine, which has more meanings of electrolytes, and is not suitable for people with poor spleen and stomach function, gastric ulcers, and poor liver and kidney function.
For drug rumors, these are really quite a few:
First, after taking anti-inflammatory drugs, you can't eat eggs?
Anti-inflammatory drugs can be divided into nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs as well as antibiotics.
Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs mainly include: including our common aspirin, indomethacin suppositories, buttaline, etc., this anti-inflammatory drug mainly inhibits cyclooxygenase, reduces prostaglandins, and thus achieves anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects.
Antibiotics, on the other hand, are drugs that treat inflammation caused by bacterial infections, drugs that can target gram-positive bacteria, and drugs that target the symptoms of gram-negative bacteria.
The above are the two broad categories of anti-inflammatory drugs, anti-inflammatory drugs help the body to reduce inflammation and pain, inhibit inflammation.
But when eating eggs will not affect the use of the above drugs and absorption, eggs from the esophagus into the stomach, after being absorbed nutrients, directly excreted from the body, it is not involved in the anti-inflammatory process of anti-inflammatory drugs, there is no such thing as eating anti-inflammatory drugs can not eat eggs.
Second, a variety of drugs can be "rubbed and eaten"?
For patients with multiple diseases, it is necessary to take more different types of drugs when taking the drug.
In order to save trouble, or to avoid missing medication, some people are often accustomed to taking it all at once, but they forget the precautions such as morning, noon and evening, before and after meals, and contraindications to taking drugs.
But in fact, if taken together, on the one hand, it will affect the maximum effect of the drug, on the other hand, there is an interaction between the drugs, and after taking it together, it may reduce the effect or enhance the side effects.
Therefore, although this kind of behavior is convenient, it may bring misfortune to the body.
Third, are over-the-counter medications safer?
Some patients believe that over-the-counter medications are safer than prescription medications, so there is no need to consider the time, dose, frequency, and duration of treatment.
But in fact, it is not, many of the drugs used to treat colds are over-the-counter drugs, and if taken at will, it may affect the efficacy of the drugs, and will also aggravate the disease and the burden on the liver and kidneys.
Therefore, even if it is an over-the-counter drug, it is necessary to remember that "it is a three-point poison of the drug", and it is also necessary to take it according to the instructions or medical advice.
Fourth, the condition has improved somewhat, can you "add or subtract" the amount of medicine?
Some people think that the medicine prescribed by the doctor is not enough, in order to make the condition better, they will buy some drugs with similar efficacy to "add meals" to themselves.
Some people firmly believe that "it is a three-point poison of medicine", so they often ignore the advice of "eating enough courses and following the doctor's instructions", and after the condition improves, they privately reduce the dosage or even stop the drug.
For example, antihypertensive drugs, if the dosage is adjusted arbitrarily, it is extremely easy to cause blood pressure fluctuations, which is not conducive to stabilizing blood pressure, thereby aggravating the structural and functional damage of blood vessels.
In short, professional matters have to be handled by professional people.
The same is true of drugs, and rational and safe use of drugs is the key to controlling the disease and recovering.
Friends who hope to see this article can get good results as long as the importance of taking drugs, avoiding the misunderstanding of using drugs, and avoiding big troubles.
