Rhone aspirin 500mg Bayer 50 tablets

For warnings, precautions for use and contraindications, please consult the instructions for use of Aspirin du Rhône 500mg Bayer 50 tablets.

Aspirin (i.e. acetylsalicylic acid ) is an active ingredient that first has an anti-inflammatory role. The mode of action of aspirin is based on its ability to regulate the secretion of prostaglandins , these substances which are secreted when the body is attacked. By controlling these prostaglandins, aspirin will on the one hand contain inflammation but also lower fever and decrease pain. The action of aspirin takes place as soon as it is absorbed in the stomach, the molecules passing through the blood and then spreading throughout the body via the blood system.

Other measures are available (warm baths, ice packs, moist wraps ...), they are not necessarily more effective and will only be considered if they do not increase the child's ill-being.

2 / In a second step, the child may be given a fever medication (called antipyretic medicine).

Carefully read the "Precautions for use" section of the package leaflet.

How should a fever medicine be used?

· respect the doses and delays between catches,

· give only one medication (do not combine or alter medications differently without medical advice),

· check that the child does not otherwise receive the same medicine (syrup, sachets, suppositories ...) or under another brand name.

If the fever persists for several days, if there are new signs (especially stiff neck, diarrhea, vomiting ...) or indicating that the fever is badly supported (child killed, losing its reactivity ... ), you should not hesitate to consult a doctor.

"WHAT TO DO IF PAIN":

Whether in adults or children:

· In the absence of improvement after 5 days of treatment,

GLOSSARY (summary)


NSAIDs
Abbreviation for non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug. Family of anti-inflammatory drugs that are not derived from cortisone (steroids), and the best known of which is aspirin.


allergy
Skin reaction (itching, pimples, swelling) or general discomfort occurring after contact with a particular substance, use of a medication, or ingestion of food. The main forms of allergy are eczema, urticaria, asthma, angioedema and allergic shock (anaphylactic shock). Food allergy can also result in digestive disorders.


anemia
Reduction in the level of hemoglobin in the blood, which usually results in a decrease in the number of red blood cells. Iron is essential for the synthesis of hemoglobin. Iron deficiency during pregnancy, a vegetarian diet, abundant or repeated haemorrhage (menstruation) is a common cause of anemia. Other causes, more rare, are related to vitamin deficiencies of group B.


analgesic
Medication that works against pain. Analgesics act either directly on the centers of pain in the brain or by blocking the transmission of pain to the brain.
Synonym: analgesic.


antecedent
Affection healed or always in evolution. The antecedent may be personal or family. The background is the history of a person's health.


antiplatelet agents
Medication that prevents the platelets from clumping and therefore the clots from forming. The oldest platelet antiaggregant is aspirin taken in small doses.
Anti-aggregants should not be confused with anticoagulants with a different mechanism of action.


anti coagulants
Medication that prevents blood from coagulating and therefore prevents clots from forming in the blood vessels.
Anticoagulants are used to treat or prevent phlebitis, pulmonary embolism, certain infarcts. They also prevent the formation of clots in the heart during rhythm disorders such as atrial fibrillation or in the case of an artificial heart valve.
There are two main types of anticoagulants:
  • oral anticoagulants, which block the action of vitamin K (antivitamin K, or AVK) and whose effectiveness is controlled by a blood test: INR (formerly TP);
  • injectable anticoagulants derived from heparin, the efficacy of which can be controlled by the blood assay of anti-Xa activity, Howell's Time (TH) or Cephalin Kaolin Time (TCK) depending on the products used. A regular dosage of blood platelets is necessary throughout the life of a heparin derivative.


antidepressant
Medication that works against depression. Some antidepressants are also used to combat obsessive-compulsive disorder, generalized anxiety, certain rebellious pain, enuresis, etc.
Depending on their mode of action and adverse effects, antidepressants are divided into different families: imipraminic antidepressants, serotonin reuptake inhibitors, selective or non-selective MAOIs. Finally, other antidepressants do not belong to any of these families, because they possess original properties.
The mode of action of antidepressants has two main aspects: the relief of moral suffering and the fight against inhibition which removes all will to action from the depressed. There may be a time lag between these two effects: moral suffering may persist, while the capacity for action reappears. During this short period, the risk of suicide in some depressed people can be increased. The physician takes it into account in its prescription (possible association with a tranquillizer) and it must imperatively be respected.


antidiabetic
Medicine intended to combat diabetes. There are two categories: oral antidiabetic agents (sulphonylurea, hypoglycaemic and biguanides, mainly) and insulin, which is used only as an injection.


antihypertensive
Medication that fights against excess blood pressure. The main ones are beta-blockers, diuretics, calcium channel blockers, ACE inhibitors, angiotensin II inhibitors and vasodilators.


anti-inflammatory
Medicine that fights against inflammation. It can be either derived from cortisone (steroidal anti-inflammatory), or not derived from cortisone (nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory or NSAID).


antipyretic
Medication used to lower the body temperature during bouts of fever.


asthma
Disease characterized by difficulty breathing, often resulting in wheezing. Asthma, permanent or occurring by crisis, is due to a narrowing and inflammation of the bronchi.


corticoid
Substance close to cortisone. The natural corticoids, necessary for the functioning of the organism, are made by the adrenal glands. Synthetic corticosteroids, chemical derivatives of cortisone, are used as powerful anti-inflammatory drugs.


diuretic
Medication allowing increased kidney water removal. Most often, this loss of water follows the loss of salts caused by the drug (salidiuretic).
Diuretics are mainly used in the treatment of high blood pressure, while their mechanism of action in this disease is poorly understood. They are also prescribed in acute or chronic heart failure, edema and other rarer ailments.
These drugs cause loss of sodium and potassium (except for some of them called "potassium-sparing"). Their prolonged administration therefore requires regular blood potassium control, to avoid heart problems that may result from hypokalemia (lack of potassium in the blood). Lack of sodium is another possible but less frequent consequence of the prolonged use of diuretics; it is also detected by a blood test.


duodenum
A part of the intestine into which food from the stomach penetrates.


G6PD
glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency, an enzyme normally present in the red blood cell. His congenital absence (deficiency) is responsible for a disease called favism; it prohibits the use of certain drugs.


Gastritis
Inflammation of the stomach favored by stress, tobacco, alcohol and certain drugs such as aspirin or anti-inflammatory drugs.


drop
Disease manifested by redness and sharp pain affecting a joint (that of the big toe most often), due to an accumulation of crystals of uric acid.


hemorrhage
Loss of blood from an artery or vein. Hemorrhage can be external, but also internal and go unnoticed.


angiotensin II inhibitors
These drugs are sometimes called sartans, for the names of the molecules belonging to this family end with sartan (losartan, candesartan, etc.).
This family of drugs blocks the action of angiotensin II, a substance that increases blood pressure and tires the heart.
Angiotensin II inhibitors are used to treat high blood pressure.


ACE inhibitors
This family of drugs blocks the action of an enzyme, which converts angiotensin I (naturally inactive substance) to angiotensin II. This last substance increases blood pressure and fatigue the heart.
ACE inhibitors are used to treat high blood pressure, heart failure or myocardial infarction.


heart failure
Inability of the heart to fulfill its function as a pump. The main symptoms of heart failure are fatigue and shortness of breath during an effort.


Hepatic insufficiency
Inability of the liver to perform its function, which is essentially the elimination of some waste, but also the synthesis of many biological substances essential to the body: albumin, cholesterol and coagulation factors (vitamin K, etc.).


renal failure
Inability of the kidneys to eliminate waste or medicinal substances. Advanced renal insufficiency does not necessarily result in a decrease in the amount of urine excreted. Only a blood test and creatinine dosage may reveal this disease.


IRS
Abbreviation for inhibitor of serotonin reuptake. See this term.


edema
Accumulation of water or lymph causing localized swelling.


phenylketonuria
An inherited disease that is characterized by the absence of an enzyme and that leads to the accumulation in the blood of a toxic product. Screening is systematic at birth. Treatment is based on a specific diet during early childhood.


salicylates
A family of drugs, the best known of which is acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin).


overdose
Excessive intake of a drug may result in an increase in the intensity of adverse effects or even in the development of specific adverse effects.
This overdose may result from accidental or voluntary poisoning for suicide, so consult your local Poison Control Center (listed in the appendix to the book). However, in most cases, overdose is the result of an error in the understanding of the prescription, or the search for an increase in efficacy by exceeding the recommended dosage. Finally, untimely self-medication may lead to excessive absorption of the same substance contained in different drugs. Some drugs are particularly prone to this risk because they are (wrongly) considered to be harmless: vitamins A and D, aspirin, etc. Stopping or decreasing drug intake helps to remove the disorders associated with an overdose.


ulcer
Injury of skin, mucous membranes or cornea.
  • Leg ulcer: chronic wound due to poor circulation of blood.
  • Gastroduodenal ulcer: a localized wound in the mucosa of the stomach or duodenum due to excess acidity and very often to the presence of a bacterium (Helicobacter pylori). The ulcer is favored by stress, alcohol, smoking and certain medications (aspirin, NSAIDs, etc.).


urticaria
Eruption of pimples on the skin, whose origin is mostly allergic. The buds look like nettles and their color varies from pale pink to red.


virus
A microscopic organism that penetrates the cells of the host, where it reproduces. Much smaller than bacteria, viruses are insensitive to antibiotics. They can sometimes be destroyed by antiviral substances.
