Yini ngempela ekulo muthi?

Amaphilisi/ama-capsule esivame ukuwathenga ekhemisi "njengomuthi womkhuhlane" aqukethe inhlanganisela yezinhlobo ezintathu eziyinhloko zemithi. Lezi yi-Acetaminophen, i-Dextromethorphan, kanye ne-Pseudoephedrine. Ake sibone ukuthi kwenzekani ngemithi ngayinye.

I-Acetaminophen: Lona umuthi onciphisa ubuhlungu nomkhuhlane emizimbeni yethu. I-Paracetamol, esiyaziyo sonke, kanye ne-Panadol nazo ziyingxenye yalolu hlobo lomuthi.
I-Dextromethorphan: Lokhu kusetshenziselwa ukulawula ukukhwehlela. Uma sikhuluma iqiniso, lokhu kuyindlela yokunciphisa ukukhwehlela.
I-Pseudoephedrine: Lona umuthi wokukhulula ukuminyana kwamakhala onciphisa ukuminyana kwamakhala kanye nokuphuma kwamanzi ekhaleni. Usebenza ngokucindezela imithambo yegazi emincane ngaphakathi kwekhala, okusiza ekunciphiseni ukuminyana kwamakhala futhi kube lula ukuphefumula.

Into ebalulekile ukuthi lo muthi ulawula izimpawu kuphela. Awubulali igciwane elibangele umkhuhlane wakho. Kufanele welashwe amasosha omzimba ethu.

Izinto okudingeka uzitshele udokotela wakho ngaphambi kokuthatha lo muthi

Ngaphambi kokuthatha lo muthi, kubalulekile ukwazisa udokotela wakho uma unezinye zezimo ezilandelayo, njengoba ezinye zezithako kulo muthi zingase zihlangane nalezi zimo.

Tshela udokotela wakho uma unalezi zimo.
Isifo se-asthma
Isifo sikashukela
Isifo senhliziyo noma umfutho wegazi ophakeme
Isifo sesibindi
Isifo se-thyroid
Ubunzima bokuchama (isb., inkinga ye-prostate)
Uma uphuza njalo
Uma uke wathatha umuthi wokucindezeleka we-MAOI (isib. i-Carbex, i-Marplan, i-Nardil) ezinsukwini eziyi-14 ezedlule
Uma ukhulelwe, uzama ukukhulelwa, noma uncelisa
Uma uke waba nokusabela kokungezwani komzimba kulo muthi noma kunoma yimuphi omunye umuthi noma ukudla.

Ngingawusebenzisa kanjani lo muthi?

Uma usebenzisa umuthi, kubaluleke kakhulu ukulandela imiyalelo ebhalwe kulebula yemithi.

Gwinya iphilisi noma ikhaphu yonke ngengilazi yamanzi. Ungalokothi uyiphule, uyichoboze, noma uyihlafune.
Thatha umthamo onqunyiwe ngesikhathi esinqunyiwe. Ungathathi okungaphezu kwalokho okuqondiswe udokotela.
Uma lo muthi unikezwa izingane ezingaphansi kweminyaka eyi-12 ubudala, kubalulekile ukufuna iseluleko kudokotela wezingane.
Uma uphuthelwa umthamo, thatha ngokushesha nje lapho ukhumbula. Kodwa-ke, uma sekuyisikhathi somthamo wakho olandelayo, yeqa umthamo ophuthelwe bese uthatha umthamo olandelayo ngesikhathi esihleliwe. Ungalokothi uthathe imithamo emibili ngesikhathi esisodwa.

Ukweqisa umthamo: Uma ngengozi uphuza umuthi omningi kakhulu, noma ungenazo izimpawu, kungaba yingozi kakhulu. Ngakho-ke iya eMnyangweni Wezimo Eziphuthumayo (ETU) wesibhedlela esiseduze ngokushesha. Noma, shayela i-National Poisons Information Centre e-Colombo National Hospital .

Ingabe lokhu kungasebenzisana neminye imithi?

Yebo, impela. Lo muthi ungasebenzisana neminye imithi. Ngakho-ke, kubaluleke kakhulu ukutshela udokotela wakho ngayo yonke imithi oyithathayo.

Ungawuthathi lo muthi kanye neminye imithi.
Ama-antidepressant e-MAOI (isib. i-Carbex, i-Marplan, i-Nardil, i-Parnate)	Ungasebenzisi lo muthi womkhuhlane izinsuku ezingu-14 ngemva kokuyeka lokhu.
Imithi yokuvuselela	Isibonelo: i-dextroamphetamine
Ingase futhi ihlangane nale mithi.
Utshwala, imithi yomfutho wegazi, imithi yenhliziyo (isib. i-nitroglycerin), imithi yengqondo, eminye imithi yokukhwehlela, umkhuhlane, imithi yokungezwani komzimba, kanye nanoma yimiphi eminye imithi equkethe i-acetaminophen (i-Paracetamol).

Lolu hlu aluphelele, ngakho tshela udokotela wakho ngayo yonke imithi, amavithamini, ngisho nemithi yendabuko oyithathayo.

Izinto okufanele uzicabangele lapho uthatha imithi

Uma izimpawu zakho zingathuthuki, noma ziba zimbi kakhulu, bona udokotela.
Tshela udokotela wakho uma ubuhlungu, ikhala elicijile, noma ukukhwehlela kuthatha izinsuku ezingaphezu kweziyi-7 .
Uma umkhuhlane uqhubeka izinsuku ezingaphezu kwezintathu noma uma umkhuhlane uba mubi kakhulu, funa iseluleko sikadokotela.
Uma uzwa ukuqubuka kwesikhumba noma ikhanda elibuhlungu kanye nokukhwehlela kwakho, yazisa nodokotela wakho.

Kubaluleke kakhulu: Ngenxa yokuthi lo muthi uqukethe i-acetaminophen,Ungathathi omunye umuthi oqukethe i-acetaminophen (njenge-Paracetamol/Panadol) kanye nalo muthi.

Yimiphi imiphumela emibi engaba khona?

Njenganoma yimuphi umuthi, lokhu kungabangela imiphumela emibi kwabanye abantu.

Imiphumela emibi edinga usizo lwezokwelapha ngokushesha
Ukusabela kokungezwani komzimba okufana nokuqubuka kwesikhumba, ukulunywa, ukuvuvukala kwezindebe/ulimi/ubuso	Ubuhlungu besifuba, ukuqina
Ukushaya kwenhliziyo okusheshayo, okungajwayelekile	Isiyezi, ukungahlaliseki okukhulu, ukuqwasha

Uma ngengozi uphuza imithi eminingi kakhulu, hamba uye eMnyangweni Wezimo Eziphuthumayo (ETU) wesibhedlela ngokushesha, noma ngabe awunazo izimpawu.
Uma izimpawu zingathuthuki ngemva kwezinsuku eziyi-7 noma uma umkhuhlane uqhubeka izinsuku ezingaphezu kwezingu-3, qiniseka ukuthi ubona udokotela.
