As the saying goes, “medicine is three parts poison”, which has some truth to it. Life can often see such a phenomenon: “cold” symptoms, immediately self-administered “anti-inflammatory drugs” and “antipyretic drugs”. Do not know that these drugs are most likely to cause liver damage. As we all know, most of the drugs that enter the body have to be processed by the liver. Therefore, the liver becomes the main target of drug damage. Drug-related liver disease can account for 10% of hospitalized patients with “acute hepatitis”, and the elderly have a higher percentage of drug-related liver damage due to the decrease in the detoxification function of the liver. We are exposed to the following types of drugs that can cause liver damage in our daily lives: 1, antibiotics: the usual “anti-inflammatory drugs” such as: penicillin, erythromycin, cephalosporins, sulfonamides and other drugs, can lead to drug-related liver disease. 2, antipyretic and analgesic drugs: aspirin, ibuprofen, anti-inflammatory pain, etc.; 3, cardiovascular drugs: amiodarone, nifedipine, verapamil, etc.; 4, lipid-lowering drugs: fenofibrate, simvastatin; 5, psychotropic drugs: chlorpromazine, Valium, etc.; 6, oral hypoglycemic drugs: euglycemia, Damacell, etc.; 7, herbal medicines: we used to think that Chinese medicine is safe, but now we find that liver damage caused by Chinese medicine is also quite common. 8, gastric drugs: cimetidine, ranitidine, etc.; 9, other: anti-cancer drugs, anti-tuberculosis drugs, anti-thyroid drugs, etc. caused by liver damage is more common. With the development of medicine, new drugs continue to appear, the incidence of drug-related liver damage is still on the rise. Avoiding the occurrence of drug-related liver damage is important in prevention, and elderly people must be careful with medication, do not use drugs without authorization, and must follow the advice of a doctor when they must use drugs.
