NSAIDs are harmful to the kidneys. Be careful before using them.
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) have pain-relieving, anti-inflammatory, and fever-reducing effects.
This group of drugs is a “dangerous drug” and must be prescribed by a doctor or pharmacist. Examples of drugs that are commonly seen include aspirin, ibuprofen, diclofenac, naproxen, and Celecoxib.
It is recommended to take this group of drugs immediately after meals and drink plenty of water because the drug has side effects that can irritate the stomach.
In addition, if this group of drugs is used excessively, it will reduce blood flow in the kidneys, which can lead to acute kidney damage. Drugs in this group also cause a slight increase in blood pressure. Long-term use of drugs can lead to chronic kidney disease.
The risk of harm to the kidneys depends on:
1. The dosage and duration of use of the drug. Therefore, drugs should not be used indiscriminately. The lowest dose that provides therapeutic effect should be used. And use for the shortest time as necessary
2. The elderly and newborns are at high risk
3. People with chronic diseases such as chronic kidney disease, high blood pressure, liver disease, diabetes, obesity
4. People who have lost a lot of blood or a lot of water
5. Use with other drugs such as diuretics, antihypertensive drugs
Therefore, the use of drugs must be under the supervision of a doctor or pharmacist only. And if you have a chronic disease, you should inform the pharmacist before buying the drug every time. Otherwise, it may be dangerous.
