13-year-old Xiaotian,
3 days ago suddenly started babbling.
He always said that he was controlled by aliens,
After a while, he said that the traffic light on the road was monitoring himself,
Taxis are also tracking themselves,
You can also hear aliens talking to you.
Sudden changes, parents are in a hurry,
With Xiaotian, he came to Zhejiang University Jingzhong (Hangzhou Seventh Hospital) for hospitalization.
The results of the examination found that
Xiaotian actually tested positive for 2 consecutive drug screenings.
Parents have repeatedly stated that
The son is very well-behaved on weekdays,
It is absolutely impossible to touch those "dirty things".
After repeatedly asking about the medical history, it turned out that a week ago, Xiaotian was diagnosed with influenza after visiting the emergency department of the local hospital because of high fever (39.6°C) and cough. In addition to the flu, doctors also prescribed symptomatic antipyretics and cough drops.
At that time, because of the child's high fever, the anxious mother did not listen to the doctor's advice clearly, and did not see the emergency medical records afterwards. The cough solution itself is a bottle of 150ml, and the doctor's advice is 10ml three times a day. As a result, Xiaotian's mother gave Xiaotian 50ml three times a day. After 3 days, I drank 3 bottles of cough drops.
How did the cough medicine have the effect of eating "drugs"?
Ephedrine, scientific name (1R,2S)-2-methylamino-phenylpropane-1-ol, has a variety of stereoisomers, is an alkaloid. The chemical name of meth is methamphetamine, also known as "deoxyephedrine". The chemical structure of the two is very similar, and ephedrine is one of the main raw materials for the manufacture of methamphetamine. In recent years, there have also been reports of ephedrine compound preparations being used in the preparation of poisons, which sounds staggering.
On the one hand, ephedrine substances can constrict the blood vessels in the nasal cavity, reduce nasal mucosal congestion, relieve nasal congestion and runny nose, and can also cause bronchodilation to calm asthma, and are commonly used drugs for the treatment of colds and coughs. On the other hand, it has the effect of stimulating the central nervous system, vasoconstriction, and excitation of the heart, which can lead to anxiety and nervousness, insomnia, dizziness, headache, palpitations, etc.
