Patient's question:
The elderly person is 84 years old. They previously had insufficient blood supply to the brain. Later, they developed a cough and took Qingfei Tang (a lung-purifying syrup) and Gancao pian (licorice tablets) after which they experienced nausea, vomiting, muscle spasms, tremors, and dilated pupils. It has been a day now, and they are bedridden and unable to get up. What could be the reason?Doctor's answer:
The consideration is that the allergy is caused by the medication. Immediate treatment is required. It is recommended to stop taking the medication. Quickly, go to the hospital for a thorough examination and treatment to avoid missing the opportunity to address the condition. Additionally, during the treatment for stomach pain, in addition to medication, the patient's dietary condition and psychological state are also very important. The patient must maintain a light diet while always keeping a cheerful and optimistic mindset to avoid unnecessary interference with the complete recovery from stomach pain.
