Male drug poisoning, patients bite their teeth and spend hundreds of millions to detoxify

Taking the medical history, Ms. NTH (27 years old, from Dak Lak) was found to have ankylosing spondylitis from 2019. She went to the Department of Musculoskeletal Medicine of Cho Ray Hospital and was prescribed oral medication. .

At home, because the neighbors advised that it would be better to take male medicine, Ms. H. obeyed. After 4 months, the disease did not improve, but she also had prolonged diarrhea, edema, exhaustion… Progression of the disease was getting worse and worse.

The patient was examined at the Poison Control Clinic – Cho Ray Hospital.

When she went to Cho Ray Hospital for screening, the doctors discovered that she had a very severe intestinal ulcer. Subsequent tests showed that Ms. H. was poisoned by heavy metals from herbal medicines. The doctor asked her to immediately stop the above drugs to cut off the source of the poison.

However, the difficulty begins with a long course of treatment aimed at resolving the ulcer. A rather severe sequel to metal poisoning is the loss of protein through the intestines.

“So the patient was forced to receive albumin and protein infusion every day for 2 years, which was very expensive,” said doctor Doan Uyen Vy, in charge of the Poison Control Clinic, Cho Ray Hospital.

Ms. H. shared: “Every day, I have to spend more than 1 million VND to give the antidote. Over the past 2 years, the family has spent a lot. During the infusion, I couldn’t do anything else because every time I exercise, I feel tired and dizzy.”

According to MSc Doan Uyen Vy, at present, Cho Ray Hospital has an antidote for heavy metals. Therefore, after 3 days of drug infusion, Ms. H. recovered, was healthy again, no longer lost protein through the intestines. Thus, ending the need for albumin, protein infusion every day…

Dr. Vy recommends that Ms. H. is one of the cases of poisoning due to wrong drug use. Intoxication from drugs takes place silently and manifests as a medical disease, the cause is not always easy to find. If not detected in time, the consequences will be very serious.

Therefore, patients should comply with the doctor’s instructions, have regular check-ups, and do not arbitrarily use oral folk medicines. If you intend to combine Western medicine and Eastern medicine, you should consult your doctor before using it, to avoid loss of money and even danger to life.
