"Site" He knows for sure: there are medications in your first aid kit, the side effects of which you do not know, even if you carefully read each instruction. Our modest list includes even those drugs whose reputation is crystal clear and you do not expect a trick from them. In a word, caution will do!

Side effects of medications
  1. aspirin
    Numerous studies have proven that taking aspirin causes much more harm than good. Many take the drug in order to prevent cardiovascular diseases and relieve pain in the heart, but, as it turned out, it not only does not help with heart disease, but causes significant harm. Internal bleeding, hemorrhagic strokes, the appearance of bruises in a flat place - all this from aspirin. By the way, aspirin can hide a heart attack, leading to death, because the drug is extremely undesirable to use the elderly.

  2. Citramon
    The drug perfectly stops the headache, there is almost no equal to it. And this, in turn, leads to a kind of addiction - there are people who drink citramon for years. Of course, a single dose of the drug does not have a negative effect on the body, but its systematic use has a number of disastrous consequences. The liver is especially severely affected, because citramone and its components have a toxic effect on a vital organ.

  3. ibuprofen
    Not only ibuprofen, but also other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (paracetamol, nimesulide, phenylbutazone) with prolonged unreasonable use can cause drug damage to the liver. In addition, frequent use of ibuprofen increases the risk of heart attack by 30% and threatens impotence.

  4. Validol
    It seems every grandmother in her pocket has a validol record. It is a drug of avid cores and those who consider themselves such. Some drink it to calm down before going to bed, others to get rid of cramps in the stomach and relieve itching after an insect bite. Undoubtedly, Validol relieves heart pain caused by stress, but in most cases, the drug acts as a “dummy”. Validol is almost impossible to poison, but there is one caveat: with serious heart problems, the medicine is unlikely to help, but precious time that can be spent on taking an effective medicine will steal.

  5. Antibiotics.
    About the negative effects of antibiotics on the body and talk is not worth it - there are a lot of them. We take antibiotics as soon as the throat hurts, forgetting that the drug has a strictly defined task - to destroy bacteria, not viruses. Mindless use and the same negligent prescription of drugs by doctors created a colossal problem - harmful bacteria have learned to develop resistance to antibiotics, and the human body, on the contrary, has become extremely vulnerable to mutated microorganisms.

  6. Vitamin A
    This retinol is not simple, even insidious! It is believed that vitamins are useful pills and you can take them in unlimited quantities. However, in the case of vitamin A, everything is not so simple: its thoughtless use can be extremely dangerous. Dry skin, cracks, brittle nails and hair, fragile bones, increased fatigue, anxiety, drowsiness - all these are satellites of an excess of vitamin A in the body. The vitamin is especially dangerous for pregnant women - exceeding the daily dose of 3,000 mcg significantly increases the risk of deformities in the fetus.
