Dietary taboos when taking medicine

Dietary taboos when taking medicine: Dietary taboos refer to food taboos, also known as taboos. In ancient literature, there are often taboos; Rehmannia glutinosa and Polygonum multiflorum avoid onion, garlic and radish, and mint avoid nail fish; Poria cocos is jealous of vinegar; Carapax trionycis avoids amaranth; There is also a record of honey turning into onions. This shows that you can't eat certain foods and certain drugs. In addition, due to this disease, all indigestible and particularly irritating foods, such as cold, sticky and fishy, should be avoided as needed during medication. Patients with high fever should also avoid oil.

It has been reported in literature that the risk of adverse reactions caused by drug treatment in the elderly over 60 years old is much higher than that of ordinary adults. This is because in the process of drug treatment, with the increase of age, the function of various organs gradually declines, the difference in response to drug treatment increases, and the tolerance decreases. In addition, the immunity of the elderly is weakened, and they may commit many diseases at the same time. In medication, we should pay attention to the reaction between some contraindications and drugs. In addition, you should be alert to the following 12 precautions.

1, avoid too many varieties: although the elderly may be complicated with many diseases when they are sick, they must use drugs reasonably according to the priority of diseases. Generally, drugs for treating acute and severe diseases should be taken first, and other drugs should be considered appropriately after the condition is basically controlled. Be wary of the phenomenon that taking a lot of medicine can cure all diseases.

2. Avoid drug addiction: Some elderly people often take digestive drugs because of poor appetite; I always rely on sleeping pills because I can't sleep well. If I take them for a long time, it will not only be addictive, but also cause some toxic damage to my body.
