Many netizens couldn't sit still
A doctor made an urgent statement:
Please don't mislead people like this
According to @生活Times Do not drink alcohol within 7 days after taking Cephalosporin. Similarly, you cannot eat Cephalosporin within a week after drinking. This is because contact with the two will cause a disulfiram-like reaction, and its severity is directly proportional to the dose of the drug and the amount of alcohol consumed. Drinking white wine is better than drinking alcohol. Reactions to beer, alcoholic beverages, etc. are severe, and drinking alcohol during medication is more severe than drinking alcohol after stopping medication. A domestic survey found that 63.67% of disulfiram-like reactions occurred within 5 minutes to 1 hour after drinking.
What is disulfiram reaction?
The reaction caused by drinking alcohol after taking medicine is called disulfiram reaction. Disulfiram itself is an alcohol withdrawal drug. When combined with ethanol, disulfiram can inhibit acetaldehyde dehydrogenase in the liver, so that after ethanol is oxidized to acetaldehyde in the body, it can no longer continue to decompose and oxidize, resulting in acetaldehyde in the body. Aldehydes accumulate and produce a series of reactions.
Severe disulfiram-like reactions can indeed cause death, but the doctor also said, "It stands to reason that drinking alcohol after taking the above types of drugs will produce the adverse reaction of acetaldehyde accumulation, but the severity of symptoms is related to drinking alcohol. There is a direct relationship between the amount, the time of drinking and the amount of medicine taken."
At the same time, the severity of disulfiram-like reactions is also related to the individual's metabolic ability. Under normal circumstances, relatively mild disulfiram-like reactions can heal themselves, and at the same time, Relieve symptoms by drinking plenty of water, resting, etc. until recovery occurs on your own. If the symptoms are severe or not relieved, seek medical treatment promptly.
In addition, many drugs have similar effects to disulfiram. If you drink alcohol after taking the drug, facial flushing, conjunctival congestion, blurred vision, severe pulsation of blood vessels in the head and neck or pulsating headache, dizziness, nausea, vomiting, and sweating may occur. , dry mouth, chest pain, myocardial infarction, acute heart failure, dyspnea, acute liver injury, convulsions and death, etc.
