As the Xiaohan solar term approached, Liu Dong, an ordinary employee in Beijing, decided to go to the hospital for a physical examination to ensure his health. He had been taking lipid-lowering drugs for three years because he was worried that his high blood lipids might lead to cardiovascular problems. Recently, however, he was experiencing liver discomfort, stomach pain, and began to worry that the medication might be adversely affecting liver function.
Liu Dong went to the local hospital and waited for a physical examination at the internal medicine clinic. He worries about his situation and is anxious inside. Finally, his name was called, and he followed the nurse to a consultation room.
In the consultation room, Liu Dong met a doctor with great affinity, named Li Xiao. Dr. Li asked, "Mr. Liu, do you have any discomfort when you come for a physical examination?"
Liu Dong patiently recounted his recent liver discomfort. After hearing this, Dr. Li began to ask Liu Dong in detail about his symptoms and Xi.
Dr. Li said, "Mr. Liu, I understand your concerns. Long-term use of lipid-lowering drugs may have some effects on liver function. But don't worry too much, let's do some tests to determine your health. ”
After a series of tests, including blood tests and liver function tests, the results showed that Liu Dong had certain problems with liver function and elevated liver enzyme levels.
Dr. Li explained, "Mr. Liu, this may be related to your long-term use of lipid-lowering drugs. Long-term use of certain medications may adversely affect the liver, leading to abnormal liver function. ”
Dr. Li then told Liu Dong some key information:
Regular monitoring: For patients who have been taking medication for a long time, it is important to monitor liver function regularly to ensure early detection of abnormalities.
Eat a healthy diet: Avoid high-fat and high-cholesterol foods in your diet and increase your intake of foods rich in vitamin E and omega-3 fatty acids, such as nuts and fish.
Moderate exercise: Moderate aerobic exercise can help improve lipid metabolism and weight loss.
Medication adjustment: Liu Dong needs to discuss with his doctor whether he needs to adjust or change lipid-lowering drugs to reduce the impact on liver function.
Limit alcohol and sugar: Avoiding alcohol and excessive sugar intake is also important for liver health.
After listening to the doctor's advice, Liu Dong felt much more relieved. He decided to follow his doctor's advice and change his lifestyle, especially his diet and exercise Xi.
He hopes to improve his health through these positive changes, while also learning the lesson that long-term medication needs to be cautious.
This story teaches us that long-term medication can adversely affect liver function, so it's important to monitor regularly and work closely with your doctor.
At the same time, a healthy lifestyle, including a healthy diet and moderate exercise, also plays a key role in maintaining liver health.
Finally, let's think about a question: what are the small Xi habits in daily life that can help us maintain liver health and reduce the adverse effects of drugs on liver function?
May everyone be able to take care of their liver health and stay away from health problems.
