Medicinal "horror stories"
And now, my dear readers, I present to you the medicinal "horror stories" I wrote out of professional medical literature.
The first "horror" from Dr. A. G. Shanturov.
Tanya P., 9 years old, in October 1975, after suffering angina, was hospitalized for rheumatic fever, rheumatic carditis, polyarthritis. In the spring of 1976, she underwent bicillin prophylaxis. During the year the girl's condition remained satisfactory. In the autumn of 1976, after repeated angina, there was an exacerbation of the disease, fever increased, and swelling of the ankles appeared. After a short inpatient treatment, the patient spent five months in a children's sanatorium, where she continuously received an average of 10 medications daily, including antibiotics( penicillin, erythromycin) that caused a hyperergic reaction, immunodepressants( delagil) and prednisolone at appropriate doses. Due to the ineffectiveness of the treatment and the impending deterioration, the girl was transferred to another medical institution where she was assigned two cytotoxic drugs( azathioprine, methine-dol), prednisolone in combination with the antibiotic gentamycin( in the presence of an allergic rash and immunodeficiency syndrome, the gamma-globulin fraction of the protein was 15%).
Against the background of the therapy, the patient's condition worsened even more. At the end of March 1977 she was transferred to the children's department of the regional clinical hospital. During this period, the girl showed signs of thrombohemorrhagic syndrome: nosebleeds, hemorrhages on the body, bloody cracks on the lips, bleeding, candidiasis, brightness of the oral mucosa, bleeding from the injection sites. Nevertheless, penicillin was again prescribed for 1 000 000 units of ED intramuscularly 4 times a day, to which the patient was hypersensitive. Blood was transfused for four days. In early April, the girl showed signs of intravascular hemolysis and typical manifestations of hemolytic crisis, multiple vomiting, yellowing of the skin and visible mucous membranes, dark urine, bilirubinemia, which was the last stressful reaction for the organism, which increased microcirculatory disorders, microthrombosis, hemolytic anemia,and led to the depletion of the bone marrow and organs of the lymphoid system, which is reflected in the autopsy. ..
The competent medical commission appointed to analyze thissad case, among many made such a conclusion: there was an excessive overload of a sick child with medications without taking into account their pharmacological and biological interactions in the body.
Confirming the view that microbes "stop" antibiotics - a matter often useless, is the fact of the emergence and increasingly noticeable manifestation during illness of dependent and resistant forms of microorganisms for which existing antibacterial drugs have become little or nonexistent. Irrational, to put it mildly, the use of antibiotics led to the spread of intra-hospital infection, which includes resistant to antibiotics and dependent types of staphylococci, gram-negative bacteria, fungi and viruses. The general hobby of allopathic physicians and the population with antibiotics in a variety of diseases, including those in which they are not shown at all, has caused the ubiquitous formation of stable pathogens of infectious diseases.
Now let's talk about a drug allergy. By this time, domestic and foreign literature has accumulated a huge amount of factual material about the side effects of drugs on absolutely all organs and systems of the human body. According to the figurative expression of Dr. IS Gushchina, the drug allergy in most cases is the result of a frivolous attitude towards pharmacological drugs. A special role in the development of drug allergy is played by preparations of synthetic origin, which confirms the second "horror" from Dr. Shanturov: the case of malignant form of exudative erythema due to prolonged and repeated administration of antibiotics.
Patient X., 4 years old, during 1984 was ill with pneumonia three times;They treated it, as a rule, with antibiotics( penicillin, ampioks).The last time an ampiox was prescribed for 250,000 units 4 times intramuscularly. After 3 days of taking the drug, the temperature increased sharply, there were rashes on the skin, mucous membranes of the mouth, conjunctiva. A typical Stevens-Johnson syndrome developed - a malignant form of exudative erythema with typical
manifestations on the skin, mucous membranes, first in the form of pink, red, brownish-red spots of various sizes, followed by the formation of flaccid bubbles, detachment of the surface layers of the epidermis, the formation of various erosive surfaces that resemble a burn of II-III degree.
The girl was in a clinic for childhood illnesses in a serious condition for about three weeks. She was discharged after treatment in a satisfactory condition.(It seems that the allopathic doctors of a sick child did not bleed, but the skin on the body got ragged.) - Authors.
A doctor said that today a sick person needs to have iron health for good examination and treatment. His ironic phrase contains, unfortunately, a deep meaning.
Medicinal anaphylactic shock( LASH) is an exceptionally severe complication of chemotherapy. Experts note that the risk of this severe complication is present in 2-3% of the population of our planet. Most often, LASH is caused by antibiotics. However, there are many reports on the development of LASH after the use of medications for local anesthesia and anesthesia, radiopaque substances, plasma and blood substitute fluids. The medical observations of LASH, which appeared after the administration of Novocain, Analgin, Vitamin B1, ACTH, Acetylsalicylic Acid, Insulin, Calcium Chloride, Amidopyrine, Aloe, Andaxin, Dicai-na, Cocarboxylase, Promedol, Aminazine, Counter-Kala, Heparin, Dimedrol, Dibasol, papaverine and many other medicines.
Drug anaphylactic shock develops more often suddenly, just a few seconds after the injection of the drug allergen, less often after a few minutes and very rarely after a few hours. During LAS, patients suddenly begin to feel general
severe weakness, dizziness, headache, adynamia( immobility), fear, chest tightness, coughing, pressing or constricting pain behind the sternum, cramping pains in the abdomen, nausea, vomiting, loss of vision and hearing, numbness of the face, lips, tongue, hands, feet, severe itching all over the body, especially on the palms, chills, sweat, desires for defecation( feces) and other unpleasant symptoms. All of them show that the body categorically rejects the injected medicine as a poisonous substance and tries to get rid of it with all its strength. The third "horror" was told by the doctor GS Kuren: the case of anaphylactic shock with a fatal outcome after penicillin injection.
Patient D., 38 years old, doctor. Received 21.10.1959 in the ENT clinic for bilateral chronic otitis media. Searing from the ears suffers from the age of seven, after measles. In 1932, a radical operation was performed on the right ear about the exacerbation of chronic purulent otitis media. In 1956, she was treated with penicillin injections in connection with an exacerbation of the purulent inflammatory process in the left ear. .. A total defect in the tympanic membrane was found in the left ear. ..
With the aim of preparing for a general surgery with tympanoplasty, the patient was appointed from 5.10.1959.parenteral administration of penicillin( 75,000 units every 4 hours).6.10 no complications were noted after the first injection of the antibiotic. However, 2-3 minutes after the second injection of penicillin, produced in 4 hours, the patient suddenly had vomiting, convulsions, cyanosis of the face, then involuntary defecation and urination, loss of consciousness. The pulse on the radial arteries was not probed. Cordyamine, caffeine, lobelia and adrenaline are injected urgently under the skin, intravenously - strophanthin with glucose and calcium chloride. However, despite all the medical measures, including artificial respiration, giving oxygen, the patient was unable to withdraw from the unconscious state, and 10 minutes later she died. .. Apparently
mu, massive antibiotic therapy, conducted in 1956, caused sensitization of the body. The second injection of penicillin was the resolving factor.
The fourth "horror"( also from Dr. Shanturov): anaphylactic shock with a lethal outcome on the administration of novocaine.
The patient C, 12 years old, entered the 10.10.1969 class on 10.10.1969 with the diagnosis of "chronic decompensated tonsillitis" for planned tonsillectomy1.Local anesthesia was carried out with a 1% solution of novocaine. After the introduction of 10.0-12.0 ml of anesthetic solution into okolomindalinovye tissues, the boy suddenly turned pale and lost consciousness, there was a stop of respiratory and cardiac activity. Immediately initiated resuscitation. Intubation of the trachea, artificial ventilation, indirect cardiac massage, appropriate drug therapy. After 15-20 minutes, independent breathing appeared, cardiac activity was restored, but consciousness did not return to the patient. Soon signs of decortication2 of the brain appeared. A day later, without regaining consciousness, the boy died.
The fifth "horror film"( from Dr. Shanturov): anaphylactic shock with a fatal outcome after the injection of streptomycin.
Patient A., 42, a kindergarten teacher, had a chronic laryngitis since the age of thirty. Periodically she was treated in the hospital and out-patient. At the same time she was on a dispensary record with a gynecologist about an inflammatory disease of the uterus and ovaries. Repeatedly took in large doses of antibiotics and hormones.6.07.1980 was at a reception with an otorhinolaryngologist who diagnosed a hyperplastic laryngitis exacerbation in a patient. Having asked the patient if she tolerates streptomycin and received an affirmative answer, the doctor prescribed streptomycin for 250,000 units of
2 times a day. However, the doctor did not notice the marks on the face of the outpatient card that the patient does not tolerate antibiotics. In the procedure room, which was located next to the office of the otorhinolaryngologist, the nurse made a patient injection of streptomycin( 250,000 units), after which, after a few seconds, she noticed that she was ill. Immediately ran into the treatment room at the call of a nurse, the otorhinolaryngologist saw the patient unconscious. Her face was swollen, her lips were cyanotic, her hands were purple-red, her pulse was very weak, her breathing was superficial. The patient immediately laid on the couch, made her intramuscular injection of 1.0 ml of a 1% solution of diphenhydramine and 1.0 ml of a 0.1% solution of epinephrine. Then, intensive medication( prednisolone, ephedrine, calcium chloride, euphyllin, strophanthin, sodium bicarbonate, etc. intramuscularly and intravenously), indirect cardiac massage, and artificial respiration were conducted with the participation of surgeons, therapists, and intensive care technicians. After 6 hours, the patient, without regaining consciousness, died.
The toxic side effect of a number of antibiotics on the hearing organ occupies a separate article in the drug pathology. Such antibiotics include streptomycin, neomycin, kanamycin, monomycin, mycerin, gentamicin, biomycin, ristomycin, vancomycin, and others. Hundreds of thousands of children around the world, if not millions, literally sacrificed their hearing for the development of production of antibacterial drugs with an otho-toxic side effect. At them at treatment of various inflammatory diseases there was a total irreversible deafness or a deafness of high and average degree. Doctors IL Kruchinina and VP Poddubny in 1974 studied the causes of auditory disorders in 717 children aged 4 to 14 years. It was found that in 51.3% of cases the deafness in them was a consequence of the use of ototoxic antibiotics. Lora Minzdravu demand from manufacturers of synthetic potent pharmaceuticals to put on their packages a warning inscription: "Treatment with pills is dangerous for your health."
Sad examples of treatment with hearing-damaging drugs are the sixth "horror film"( from Dr. A. G. Shanturov).
Ira B., 6 years old, underwent pneumonia at the age of 1 year, treated with monomycin( 50,000 units 2 times a day) and kanamycin( 90,000 units 2 times a day) intramuscularly for 7 days. After the treatment, I stopped to hear and speak. Deafness. Trained and educated in a special kindergarten for deaf children.
Andrei A., 7 years old, received at the age of six months streptomycin, neomycin and other antibiotics for bilateral otitis media. Dosage is not known. The boy lost his hearing, speech did not develop.
Igor V., 4 years old, in the hospital for a respiratory infection received monomycin for 25,000 units 4 times a day for 7 days. At the age of 1 year, parents noticed that the child does not respond to sounds. A survey was conducted. The diagnosis is deafness.
Katya B., 6 years old, at a month's age, was receiving streptomycin intramuscularly for a bilateral purulent otitis media within 5 days. The outcome is deafness.
Vova L., 4 years old, had a sharp purulent median right-sided otitis complicated by anthritis at ten months old. Anthotomy was performed. Recovery. Repeatedly he had pneumonia. In 1984 he was hospitalized for an exacerbation of pneumonia, he received gentamycin. On the third day of treatment the child stopped reacting to sounds. Gentamicin was canceled. Complete deafness developed on both ears. Trained and educated in kindergarten for deaf children.
Sasha K., 4 years old, suffers from chronic pneumonia, was repeatedly treated with streptomycin and kanamycin. Result: sensorineural hearing loss of the third degree, sharp speech disturbance. In practice, it was found that the defeat of cochleocene stibular apparatus can cause a large number of other antibacterial drugs.
Another area where pharmaceutical preparations - xenobiotics brought a lot of tragedies to the world - obstetrics and gynecology. Every year hundreds of millions of pregnant women take various medications on the ground, although it is well known that among the many environmental factors that can cause fetal development and its malformation, pharmaceuticals belong to one of the leading places. About 20-25 years ago on our planet, children with various developmental anomalies were born every 30 seconds. I have no doubt that now such children are born even more often, in fact, over the past years, the monblanes and the Ever-Hundreds of xenobiotic medicines have become even higher. Let me remind the admirers of pharmacotherapy of the already forgotten tragedy of the 20th century, associated with thalidomide, released in 1958 in Germany to increase internal comfort in women during pregnancy.
Discomfort in poor western women began after pregnancy, when they began to give birth to children with multiple deformities, especially the upper and lower extremities, ears, eyes, internal organs. How is it now, this is the many thousands generation of "pinnipeds"?During scientific experiments and clinical observations, it was found that many other xenobiotic drugs possess teratogenic( disfiguring embryo and fetus) effect. These include, for example, antitumor drugs: methotrexate, fluorouracil, mercapto purine, dopane, cyclophosphamide, myelosan, thiophosphamide, actinomycin and others;hormones-glucocorticoids: prednisolone, cortisone, hydrocortisone and others;syn
Tetotic sex hormones: estrogens, androgens and others;antibiotics: tetracycline, gentamicin, kanamycin, neomycin, monomycin and others;antiepileptic agents: trimethine, diphenine;anticoagulants: dicumarin and others;as well as insulin, quinine, aminazine, sulfonamides and others.
In the light of the foregoing, I conclude: pharmacotherapy by means of synthetic, non-existent in nature chemicals is a dead end direction of medicine."Every doctor has his own cemetery" - the aphorism of allopathic doctors."In time, fast and pray to God for health" - the instruction of naturopathic doctors for healthy people.
Mikhail Gorbachev in the political report of the CPSU Central Committee to the XXVII Congress of the Communist Party of the USSR said about health: "It was long ago and correctly noted that you can not buy health in a pharmacy. The main thing - in the way of life of a person, in that, in particular, is how much reasonable and useful he uses his free time. "I have never been an adherent of the Communist Party, but I am ready to subscribe to these words of the great leader.
And here is how Dr. Zalmanov treated chemotherapy( I quote excerpts from his statements):
"It is both naive and unsuccessful, and even dangerous, to restore life harmony only by chemical means, as they often increase disharmony and disturbed equilibrium."
"99% of medicines that are swallowed daily by patients are useless."
"Real preventive medicine should avoid anti-infectious vaccinations."
"Do an arithmetic calculation, and you will establish that balneotherapy( warmers, hot wraps, baths) is more effective than all pharmacology. Balneotherapy, well done, never presents with the
the danger of growing resistant microbes, it does not anesthetize, it does not poison. "
"Supporters of intravenous injections, doctors who for 40 years inject directly into the blood of various substances, often very poisonous, do not realize how they cause confusion in the composition of the blood, how much these blood-cell bodies are destroyed by these injections, how many shocks occur in the plasma,what inflammatory processes and the phenomena of degeneration are caused by them in the deep endothelium of repeatedly damaged arteries and veins. This tragic delusion has been going on for almost half a century. The number of phlebitis, thromboses, embolism, arteritis continuously increases since the introduction of intravenous injections. "
"If therapy remains strictly medicated, the body will be freed from some microbes, but there will be room for other microbes. Toxic proteins remain in the body, affecting various areas of the body. The acute dangerous phenomena of the disease can disappear, but are replaced by chronic diseases, atypical and difficult to diagnose. "
"We must be aware that excess antibiotics kill the defenses of the body during the rise in temperature, make it allergic, for many months depriving it of resistance."
"Medicinal polypharmacy suppresses an acute disease and all too often creates chronic diseases. Chronic patients, reaching despair, turn to herbalists, healers. "
