Why can’t you drink fake wine?

A few days ago, I received two such patients: one is a 27-year-old young man surnamed Guo, with a history of hepatitis B for 6 years, liver function has been in the normal range, and a few friends opened a bottle of fake wine, to 3 glasses of wine down, that is, feel black eyes, legs weak, weakness, dizziness, sweating, was carried to bed by the personnel present. When he woke up, although the above symptoms disappeared, he felt a painful swelling in his right side. Once he went to the hospital for examination, he found that his liver function was severely damaged and had to be hospitalized. After a month of liver protection and enzyme reduction treatment, he was discharged after the pain disappeared and his liver function improved, spending more than 6,000 yuan in medical expenses. The other is a 43-year-old middle-aged man surnamed Zhang, no previous history of hepatitis, opened a bottle of cheaply purchased fake wine on his own, drank half a pound in one gulp, although at that time the stomach noisy discomfort, headache dizziness, blurred eyes, weakness around the body, did not pay enough attention, they fell asleep. The next time he woke up, he felt pain in his right side, fatigue, sluggish food and abdominal distension. The patient did not care and went on to work in the fields. It was only when others said he had a yellow face that he paid attention. The patient’s liver function was severely damaged, and the total bilirubin and direct bilirubin were significantly elevated, so the doctor considered severe hepatitis and requested hospitalization. Spent 20,000 yuan in medical expenses, hospitalized for more than a month before turning to safety! You know, fake wine is generally the methanol content exceeds the standard, methanol into the body, in the liver quickly oxidized to formaldehyde, and formaldehyde has a strong killing effect on liver cells, can cause a large number of liver cell necrosis, causing toxic hepatitis, and even acute, subacute or chronic severe hepatitis, serious can also be induced by acute and chronic liver failure and life-threatening. It can be seen that the scourge of fake wine is an indisputable fact, in order to their own health, family happiness and social stability, in addition to industry and commerce, the judicial sector to fight counterfeit and, in addition, each of us should consciously resist, not to take it for granted and try to drink or really drink, so as to avoid the occurrence of similar events.
