Ungawususa kanjani umuthi ongasetshenziswanga

Imfundo Yezempilo

Vula ikhabethe lakho lemithi. Amathuba amahle kakhulu ukuthi unemithi emidala lapho ndawo ndawo. Ukubambelela ezidakamizweni ezingasetshenziswanga kungahle kubonakale kungelutho, kepha kungenzeka ukuthi kubeka abantu engozini.

Okukhathaza kakhulu ukuthi amaphilisi ezinhlungu asalayo asetshenziswa omunye umuntu ngaphandle kwalowo abemiselwe yena. Kungumshayeli ophawulekayo wenkinga yama-opioid, kusho UCraig K. Svensson , I-Pharm.D., I-PhD, i-dean emeritus kanye noprofesa wekhemistri yezokwelapha ne-pharmacology yamangqamuzana ku IPurdue University College of Pharmacy .

Kodwa amaphilisi ezinhlungu asele akuyona ukuphela kwemithi okufanele uyiqaphele — ngisho nemithi elwa namagciwane eyengeziwe neminye imithi ingaba usongo. Ngisebenze esikhungweni esilawula ubuthi iminyaka, futhi angikwazi ukukutshela ukuthi zingaki izingane ezifakwe ubuthi ngemuva kokungena emithini kadokotela, kusho uSvensson.

Ungamane uphonsa lawo maphilisi kudoti, noma kunjalo. Kubalulekile ukufunda ukuthi ungayilahla kanjani imithi ngokuphepha. Nakhu okumele ukwenze ngemiyalo yakho yakudala engadingeki.

1. Hlola uhlelo lwendawo lokulahla izidakamizwa

Enye yezindlela ezingcono kakhulu zokususa imithi yakho engasetshenziswanga noma ephelelwe yisikhathi ngohlelo lokulahlwa kwendawo, ngokusho kwe- Ukuphathwa Kwezokudla Nezidakamizwa zase-U.S .

Amakhemisi amaningi anezinhlelo zokubuyisa imithi. Ngokuvamile kuyibhokisi lokudonsa ngaphakathi ekhemisi lapho ubeka khona amabhodlela akho kadokotela futhi ikhemisi lizowalahla ngokuphepha, kusho uSvensson. Khetha Amakhemisi e-CVS yemukela imithi kadokotela engadingeki. Ama-Walgreens Pharmacy anikela DisposeRx amabhokisi ezindaweni ezikhethiwe.

Ezinye izibhedlela, imitholampilo, neziteshi zamaphoyisa nazo zamukela imishanguzo engafuneki yokulahla izidakamizwa ngokuphepha. Ungathola izindawo zokulahla izidakamizwa endaweni yakho ngokusebenzisa i-United States Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA).

2. Flush imithi eyingozi

Awukwazi ukuthola uhlelo lokubuyisa umuthi endaweni yakho? Ungakhathazeki — unenketho yokulahla khona endlini yakho yokugezela: indlu yangasese.

Kufanele ukhiphe noma imiphi imishanguzo umuntu angayisebenzisa kabi, efana nama-opioid noma iXanax, weluleka uSvensson.

Akuzona zonke izinhlobo zomuthi okufanele zishaywe. Ngaphambi kokuthulula amabhodlela akho endlini yangasese, bheka imiyalo yokulahla okungenzeka ukuthi iza nemiyalelo yakho. Noma, sebenzisa i- Izincomo ze-FDA . Izidakamizwa okufanele uzishaye zihlanganisa (bheka isixhumanisi sezibonelo zamagama ezimpawu lapho lezi zithako zitholakala khona):

• I-Benzhydrocodone / i-acetaminophen
• I-Buprenorphine
• Fentanyl
• I-Diazepam
• I-Hydrocodone
• I-Hydromorphone
• I-Meperidine
• I-Methadone
• I-Methylphenidate
• I-Morphine
• I-Oxycodone
• I-Oxymorphone
• I-Tapentadol
• Umswakama we-sodium

Yize kunokunye ukukhathazeka ngokuthi ukufafaza umuthi ethoyilethi kungalimaza imvelo, usongo olungaba khona lokuthi la maphilisi ayingozi abeka kubantu ukukhathazeka okukhulu kakhulu, kusho uSvensson.

Ingozi yokuthi abantu baphambukise futhi basebenzise kabi izidakamizwa iphezulu impela futhi ngokwengxenye iqhuba inkinga ye-opioid, ngakho-ke ukugeza lezo zidakamizwa kuyindlela engcono yokugwema lokho, echaza.

3. Phonsa izidakamizwa ezingafuneki kudoti

Ngenkathi ukuletha izidakamizwa ezingafanele ukufakwa ohlelweni lokubuyisela emuva kukhethwa, ungaziphonsa kudoti wakho wasekhaya uma kunesidingo. Isihluthulelo ukubenza bangathandeki ngangokunokwenzeka.

Udinga ukufaka umuthi kudoti ngendlela izilwane nabantu abangeke bawudle, kusho uSvensson.

I-FDA incoma ukuxuba umuthi nokuthile okungathandeki, njengodoti wekati, izinkundla zekhofi, noma ukungcola. Bese, uthulule ingxube esitsheni sayo, njengesikhwama sepulasitiki esingavuseleleka (ukuvimbela ukuvuza), bese ukubeka lokho kudoti wakho.

Okwakho ibhodlela lephilisi kufanele iphonswe ngaphandle noma iphinde isetshenziswe kabusha. Sebenzisa umaka unomphela ukwenza mnyama imininingwane oyimfihlo efana negama lakho, ikheli, inombolo kadokotela, negama lomuthi, ukuze uvikele ubumfihlo bakho. Okungcono futhi, khipha yonke ilebula uma kungenzeka.

Kungase kubonakale sengathi ikhabethe eliminyene liyinkinga ebangelwa umuthi ongafuneki. Kepha lapho amaphilisi athile ephelela ezandleni ezingafanele, imiphumela ingaba yingozi. Gcina imiyalelo oyinikezwe ngokuphepha — futhi uyilahle kahle lapho ungasayidingi.
