Do medications work for carbon monoxide poisoning?

Carbon monoxide poisoning is not treated by medication; however, other medications are needed to treat the symptoms if other complications arise. Carbon monoxide poisoning can be treated by oxygen inhalation or hyperbaric chamber. 1. After inhalation of carbon monoxide, carbon monoxide can combine with hemoglobin to form carboxyhemoglobin, which has an affinity for hemoglobin roughly 250 times that of oxygen. Oxygen therapy can accelerate the dissociation of carboxyhemoglobin, thus accelerating the discharge of carbon monoxide. 2. Hyperbaric oxygen chamber treatment, the treatment purpose is mainly to increase the oxygen dissolved in the blood, increase the partial pressure of arterial oxygen. Once carbon monoxide poisoning is detected, immediately transfer the patient to a place with fresh air. And rush to the hospital, by professional medical personnel for treatment, remember not to indiscriminate use of drugs, so as not to affect the therapeutic effect.
