Some parents will encounter such a situation: the child is sick, parents to the child’s medication is also timely, the drug is also symptomatic, but after eating the effect is not obvious, and eventually lead to aggravation of the disease, which is why? The reason for this is that it has a great relationship with the wrong method of taking medication for children. Children have significant differences with adults in many aspects, such as their growth and development characteristics, metabolic patterns and spleen and stomach functions, each drug for children have extremely strict regulations, of which the method and time of taking medication is particularly important, there are some seemingly insignificant details that many parents are most likely to ignore and make mistakes. Not all drugs can be taken with warm water, and not all drugs need to be taken with water, are you doing it right? The following drugs should not be served with warm water 1, heat detoxification class of Chinese medicine children who suffer from wind and fever or fever, fire and other heat poisoning disease, this time with cool water with heat detoxification of Chinese medicine, can maximize the role of drugs, on the contrary, if served with warm water, contradict the principle of Chinese medicine to clear heat, thus affecting the efficacy. 2, vitamin drugs most vitamins are water-soluble, extremely unstable, hot water is easy to be decomposed, reduction and destruction and loss of the original effect. 3, active bacterial preparations We clinically used mamma love, Hershey, whole intestine, etc., all contain active bacteria to regulate gastrointestinal function, it is easy to be warm water to destroy and kill, thus not play any role. 4, active vaccines like children taking live attenuated polio vaccine, it is a mixed sugar pill vaccine, this type of vaccine is very sensitive to heat, low temperature conditions are more stable, if served with warm water, it is easy to kill the vaccine virus, and the provision of cool boiled water served half an hour before you can eat hot things, so as not to affect the immune effect. 5, syrup drugs children most commonly used is cough syrup, such as honey refining Chuanbei loquat, Sanjiu cough syrup, acute syrup, etc., these syrups will be directly adhered to the throat to play the most direct role of anti-inflammatory cough, while the formation of a protective layer of the throat mucosa to reduce irritation, thus playing the role of cough suppression. If served with warm water, it is easy to dilute the drug and can not play an effective role in the protection of the throat. 6, certain digestive drugs Many of these drugs contain digestive enzymes, and this enzyme is easy to coagulate denaturation in the presence of heat. Some drugs should not be taken with water Like the above-mentioned cough syrup class of drugs, the requirement is to be taken directly, not with water, only so as to maintain the concentration of drugs in the throat, so as to play a better curative effect. After taking the drug should not drink more water Not all drugs need to drink more water when taking. Some drugs due to its special way of action, when taking not only can not drink more water, or even can not drink water, otherwise it will reduce the effectiveness of the drug, lose the therapeutic effect. Like some of the treatment of gastric ulcer drugs, when taking drugs should not drink more water, if you drink more water will dilute the drug, so that the drug particles covering the damaged gastric mucosa is reduced, the protective film becomes thin, thus losing the therapeutic effect. The cough syrup commonly used by children is viscous, and after taking the drug will adhere to the pharynx and act directly on the lesion, thus playing an anti-inflammatory and coughing role, if you drink too much water, it will wash away the active ingredients of the drug in the pharynx, reducing the local drug concentration and affecting the effectiveness of the drug.
