I`ll show you the real Australian divine medicine: Panadol.


When I first came to Australia, when I was 17 years old, I remember my mother prepared a medicine box for me, from cephalosporins to berberine, Ganmao granule to Fengyou essence.

But there are only no painkillers in the medicine box. It seems that in the Chinese concept, painkillers are very evil food, do not eat will not die, but eat too much will become silly (anyway, my mother taught me at that time).

So every month when relatives come, even if they roll and cry, they have to survive those days. So I was not afraid of going abroad at the time when I was 17 years old.

On the contrary, what I am afraid of is that I can not buy hot water bags and brown sugar ginger water abroad. I kept this feudal superstition until I was 21 years old. Of course, I spent almost a few days as a girl every few days of the month.

In fact, as long as we understand our own body, their own symptoms, the mechanism of drugs, safe dosage and common side effects, we can rationally judge whether we should take drugs, what kind of drugs to take, and how many drugs to take.

In Australia, this information can be consulted free of charge from community pharmacist (community pharmacist).

My article may not contain all the information about painkillers, but it can help people fight for the benefits they deserve and make full use of the knowledge of pharmacists to solve the problems of most common drugs.

First of all, I have to talk about the Australian medicine Panadol (Chinese paracetamol). Students who have seen doctors in Australia should have deep feelings, from headaches, dizziness, nausea, colds, fever, even avian flu, Australian doctors dare to only prescribe Panadol. for you. .

This is not an ad post, so I won`t exaggerate the benefits of this medicine. # non-opioid painkillers #, # antipyretic #, # pregnant women can safely take #, # nursing mothers can safely take #, # baby can be taken at the behest of a doctor # supermarket drugstore # these labels basically include the characteristics of this drug # supermarket drugstore #, # antipyretic #, # pregnant women can safely take #, # nursing mothers can safely take #, # baby can be taken at the behest of doctors. .

But there are a few things that not all pharmacists will take the initiative to remind you of:

Panadol is not as effective in the treatment of inflammatory pain as aspirin (Aspirin) and ibuprofen (Ibuprofen / Nurofen); anti-inflammatory painkillers we`ll talk about later. To put it simply, although Panadol also plays a role in dysmenorrhea, fall injury, toothache and other pain, but the effect is far less than ibuprofen or aspirin;

Panadol is safe at normal doses, but excessive doses can damage the liver, so people with poor liver had better not take Panadol, overdose paracetamol to hurt the liver; the recommended dose in Australian Pharmacopoeia (Australian Medicines Handbook) is 500mg-1000mg (1 × 2 tablets) every 4 to 6 hours, at most not more than 4 g. So the average Panadol should not exceed 8 tablets a day;

Panadol has many dosage forms. Like tablets, caplets, soluble Panadol. Tablets is usually the cheapest, but my personal favorite is Panadol Optizorb caplets. The absorption is quick (usually 15 minutes) and there is a slippery layer of epidermis on the long strip of tablets, which helps to swallow.

My throat is thin, and I often get stuck in the middle of my medicine. But you won`t eat this. Granule (Soluble Panadol) is common in many cold drugs, such as Lamsip. Many granule additives contain a lot of salt that increases blood pressure, so it`s best for patients with cardiovascular disease to take tablets honestly.

There is also a high dose of sustained-release Panadol called Panadol Osteo, which only pharmacists can ship out of the back warehouse and is generally used by the elderly to treat joint pain for a long time.

Sustained-release tablet (Sustained release tablets) must be taken as a whole. If crushed, it means that the average release measure designed for eight hours will be completely absorbed in an instant, which means that if you do not die, you must pay attention to it.

That`s all Panadol wants to remind you so far. Always remember that it costs money to wait in line to talk to a doctor in Australia, but it is free to find a pharmacist.

The information used by everyone is not far from each other, so some small pain and minor illness might as well run to the pharmacy to talk to the pharmacist, simple economic and fast. Interrupting that picking pharmacies is also a learning that discount pharmacy, which looks like it doesn`t cost anything, generally pays attention to passenger traffic and neglects service quality.

So when I went to school, I went to old pharmacists or trainee pharmacists who looked like high-end pharmacists, looking for old people because they had experience and love to chat, and interns because registration exams depended on the communication of pharmacists and patients, so usually they used every guest as a grindstone and wanted to tell you everything they knew.
