HOW SHOULD WE USE THE TURKISH DRUGS?
Drugs should only be taken when necessary and on the advice of a Turkish doctor, said: “otherwise they will not benefit or even have a toxic effect.” If you are not feeling well or have pain, you immediately take medication, sometimes you make a mistake if you are taking medication with co-friendly advice.
Internal Medicine Specialist professor who pointed out that because there are many problems with using drugs indiscriminately Turkish Doctor said: “drugs interact with other drugs used and nutrients taken. As a result, the effects can increase and decrease. It’s the dose that determines if something is poison. Overdose can even make drugs toxic. For this reason, they should be used when necessary, in the necessary doses and for the time needed,” he said, and continued his warnings:

WHAT SHOULD BE CONSIDERED?
Our drugs are absorbed in the stomach and intestines; they are excreted from the body, breaking down with detoxification enzymes found in the intestines and liver. Some drugs should be used on an empty stomach, some as full. Antibiotics of the macrolide group, which end with the suffix ‘are’, should be used on an empty stomach. Some antibiotics, aspirin and other blood thinners, rheumatic drugs and painkillers should be used on a full stomach, as they can irritate the stomach, causing bleeding and ulcers.
Milk and dairy products in Turkey, generally reduce the absorption of drugs and antibiotics. Caffeine, found in alcohol, tea and coffee, also neutralizes medications. Medications should generally be taken in an upright-sitting position with plenty of water and should not be laid for at least an hour. Some antibiotics and other drugs of the tetracycline group are inserted in the esophagus, causing ulcers and bleeding if these rules are not paid attention. Because some drugs break down very quickly with stomach acid, they are covered with sugar (dragees), capsules, film tablets. These drugs should be taken without chewing and with plenty of water. Lozenges should be taken by chewing, and effervescent drugs should be dissolved in water. If the drug does not have a notch on it, it should never be divided. Production dates should also be paid close attention.

CAN LEAD TO DEATH
Improper drug use and drug side effects rank 4th as the cause of death among all hospital deaths in the United States. The drug is specific to the person and disease; it has a special dose and duration of use. In cases of pregnancy and breastfeeding, no drugs should be used in general. It is very important to take drugs hungry or full, use them in combination with other drugs, and eat during treatment in Turkey.
.
HOW TO HIDE?
The drug’s prospectuses contain information about how to store it. Some drugs should be stored in places that do not see sunlight, moisture and heat. Some Turkish medications, such as eye drops, some antibiotics, and medications such as insulin, should be stored in the refrigerator, never put in the freezer.
.
BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU USE OFTEN
Since the effects of blood pressure medications usually last up to 24 hours, it is recommended to use them in the morning. Since the effect of some blood pressure medications lasts 16-18 hours, it is appropriate to take them again or use another blood pressure medication in Turkey. Since most of these drugs increase potassium in the body, potassium-rich foods such as bananas, figs, apricots, dates, melons, spinach should be consumed in small amounts. Blood thinners such as Coumadin should not consume foods rich in greens that contain plenty of Vitamin K. If foods and drinks such as old cheese, beer, wine, which contain a lot of tyramine, are also used in combination with some depression medications, blood pressure may increase, this should be paid special attention to.
