Understanding Medicines and What They Do
traducción al español en los comentarios
What Are Medicines?
Medicines are chemicals or compounds used to cure, halt, or prevent disease; ease symptoms; or help in the diagnosis of illnesses. Advances in medicines have enabled doctors to cure many diseases and save lives.
Some medicines are made in labs by mixing together a number of chemicals. Others, like penicillin, are byproducts of organisms such as fungus. And a few are even biologically engineered by inserting genes into bacteria that make them produce the desired substance.
Different Types of Medicines
Medicines act in a variety of ways. Some can cure an illness by killing or halting the spread of invading germs, such as bacteria and viruses. Others are used to treat cancer by killing cells as they divide or preventing them from multiplying. Some drugs replace missing substances or correct low levels of natural body chemicals such as some hormones or vitamins. Medicines can even affect parts of the nervous system that control a body process.
Taking Medicines
No matter what type of medicine your doctor prescribes, it's always important to be safe and follow some basic rules:
If you feel worse after taking a medicine, tell your doctor right away.
Double-check that you have the right medicine. If you get the same prescription filled more than once, check that it's the same shape, size, and color as the last time. If not, be sure to ask the pharmacist about it.
Read the label and follow directions. Ask if you have questions.
Take medicines exactly as prescribed. If the instructions say take one tablet four times a day, don't take two tablets twice a day. It's not the same.
Ask if the medicine is likely to affect everyday tasks such as driving or concentrating in school.
Don't take more medicine than is recommended. It won't make you heal faster or feel better
Consult your doctor's for any medical advice with your medication
