A netizen
gave his comment after he had read
my
blogs:
"Each
medicine has something poisonous."
I
replied: What you said is right !
“Each medicine has
something poisonous .”
In fact,
this is the Third Law of Mediccal
Science.
According
to the third law , we can realize easily that
both
traditional Chinese medicine and western
medicines have something
poisonous.
So, we
can't say that traditional Chinese
medicine
only means
toxicity while western medicine
only
means effectiveness.
And by
the third law, we also can easily explain
lot
toxic and
side effects caused by western medicine
,
and
explain a large number of facts that our
TCM
(
Traditional
Chinese Medicine
) can
effectively
treat many
diseases.
In fact ,
both patients and doctors should face up
to
the toxicity of drugs , and
the understanding of drug
toxicity should
be objective and fair .
So, doctors mustn't cajole or
cheat patients
by words
like "All
western medicines are effective , while
all
traditional Chinese
medicines are toxic." .
Otherwise, it is
very irresponsible.
Objectively speaking , many western medicines
are
also toxic.
So, we
should't let western medicines
muddle through
using all
the words like "Toxic side
effects".
For
examples:
1.
Streptomycin, kanamycin, gentamycin, etc.
have
obvious
toxicity to the cranial nerves , which
can
cause tinnitus,
dizziness, and deafness;
2.
Chloramphenicol, synthamycin and most
anti-cancer
drugs
are toxic to the hematopoietic system, which can
inhibit
bone marrow hematopoiesis and cause
leukopenia and
thrombocytopenia.
3. In the
1950s, thalidomide , a new drug in Western
Europe,
was widely used as a sedative in pregnancy
reaction,
resulting in more than 8000
deformed
fetuses.
4. As
we know, sublingual
nitroglycerin can
effectively
treat
angina pectoris in
an appropriate amount
.
But on
the other hand, nitroglycerin is also an explosive.
And
those who always want to ruin our TCM will not
be
unaware
of such basic knowledge, right?
Of
course , excessive
dosage and
long duration of
taking
medicine are
often important
factors
that
induce
drug toxicity.
Therefore
, when we want to avoid the
toxic effects of
drugs as
far as possible, the most important is not
to
tell traditional Chinese
medicines from western
medicine
, but to know the medicine
efficacy,
to strictly
control
the dosage of
drugs.
Speak
specifically, the dosage of drugs should be
strictly
controlled
within the effective dosage
level , not reach
the
toxic dosage as far as possible.
And
also, the experience of patients' using drug should
be
considered in detail, and the drug reaction
of
patients should
also be observed in detail.
At
last, in a word :
And
according to this third law , we can also get
the
following
inference:
Whether traditional Chinese
medicine or
western
medicine,
the toxicity is known and
controllable.
