"She fainted!"

"Ah? Why do you get sever? Is it hypoglycemia?"

"Not sever, 'aunt' has come to see her..."

"Ah? Why don't you take painkillers?"

"Because the Internet is not saying that it is poisonous, I dare not take it!"

This scene continues to be staged in various parts of life. Now more and more young girls are beginning to say no to painkillers for their health due to the improvement of their health awareness.

Here, pharmacy clinical pharmacist of Sichuan Maternal and Child Health Hospital will tell you about this "terrible" painkiller!

Generally speaking, dysmenorrhea traditional hard resistance methods to warm babies and drink hot water can relieve it. However, if the pain is really annoying

, it is recommended that you give some painkillers

? Why Zilu? It’s not that it’s addictive”

reads down!

1. Drink more hot water . Can you stay away from dysmenorrhea if you pay attention to keeping warm? Not necessarily

"Hey, what are you doing? It's so cold, so little wears" can you avoid dysmenorrhea!

"One sip of ice milk tea , one sip of ice cream, eat so much cold" can you avoid dysmenorrhea!

Menstruation is really painful. So I developed a good habit to stop being cold and cold! But it still hurts!

Speaking of dysmenorrhea, it may be a problem that has bothered us women for thousands of years. Clinically, dysmenorrhea is divided into two types: primary dysmenorrhea and secondary dysmenorrhea. Simply put, primary dysmenorrhea refers to pain without cause, while secondary dysmenorrhea is pain caused by diseases, such as endometriosis , adenomyosis, pelvic inflammatory disease , etc. Among them, primary dysmenorrhea accounts for more than 90% of dysmenorrhea. What we are discussing today is only for primary dysmenorrhea!

Generally speaking, good living habits are the basis, but if it still cannot be improved by changing living habits, it will affect normal life. After going to the hospital for examination and excluding other diseases, you can take painkillers appropriately~

2. Will painkillers become addicted after taking painkillers? Do people still want to take it?

The painkillers we usually use are not addictive~

Pain analgesics are divided into: anesthetic analgesics and non-anaesthetic analgesics

Narcotic analgesics are mainly used in central nervous system . When the opioid receptor is excited, it will have analgesic effects, and long-term use will indeed be addictive. In the hospital, opioid analgesics are commonly used by doctors in surgery and relieve Anesthetic analgesics for cancer pain relief are strictly controlled by the state. Ordinary people cannot buy it at all.

The first choice for dysmenorrhea is antipyretic analgesics, which is not an opioid analgesics and will not act on opioid receptors. Therefore, taking a few tablets of painkillers occasionally during dysmenorrhea will not be addictive. Generally, commonly used are ibuprofen , acetaminophen , etc.

3. How does painkillers work?

make the "invisible friend" of dysmenorrhea occurring is called prostaglandin. Normal amount of prostaglandin will cause the uterus to contract, Let endometrium be stripped out and the menstrual blood is excreted as soon as possible. However, once the content of prostaglandin is too high, it can cause excessive contraction of the uterine smooth muscle, blood vessel contracture, causing uterine ischemia and hypoxia, resulting in different degrees of lower abdominal cramps. Antipyretic analgesics inhibit the synthesis of prostaglandin by inhibiting cyclooxidation enzyme (COX), thereby alleviating the spastic contraction caused by prostaglandin and alleviating dysmenorrhea.

4. Friends of dysmenorrhea, be sure to take painkillers reasonably and scientifically!

antipyretic analgesic drugs have no way to deal with the secreted prostaglandins. The prostaglandins produced before taking the medicine can only be metabolized by itself. In addition, it takes about 1-2 hours to start taking the medicine. You can only endure it during this period. Therefore, girls with dysmenorrhea must master the time of their dysmenorrhea attacks. Generally, taking painkillers for 2-3 days at the same time as menstruation begins. The specific method of taking it depends on the specifications of drugs and dosage form purchased. Please refer to the drug instructions.

"is the three parts poisonous medicine". Antipyretic analgesics also have adverse reactions to drugs, such as nausea, vomiting, stomach burning sensation, indigestion, gastrointestinal ulcers, headache, dizziness, etc. The most common one is gastrointestinal reactions. The clinical pharmacist of Sichuan Maternal and Child Health Hospital summarized several precautions for taking antipyretic analgesics:

1. In order to reduce the irritation to the gastrointestinal tract, it is generally taken during or after meals, and avoid drinking alcohol or alcohol-containing beverages during medication. If you have gastrointestinal underlying diseases, you should consult a doctor or pharmacist before use.

2. To avoid overdose, do not take other drugs that contain antipyretic and analgesic ingredients at the same time, such as certain compound cold medicines.

3. Continuous use is usually not more than 3 days.

For most healthy young girls, the side effects of taking a few tablets of painkillers occasionally are really insignificant than severe dysmenorrhea.

Finally, let me tell you a little story. Lin, a friend of the clinical pharmacist of Sichuan Maternal and Child Health Hospital, has been suffering from dysmenorrhea for many years. She has always used methods such as "sticking babies" and "drinking hot water" to fight hard. This time, because there was an important project in the unit that she needed to preside over, and the pain made it difficult for her to persist. After repeatedly consulting her clinical pharmacist friends, she quickly bought ibuprofen and took it, relaxed and took it for a night of early and then continued to take it the next day. Later, Lin successfully hosted an important project in the unit with full spirit. She said that it was great to feel free from pain.
