Advice

Of course, pain relievers, commonly known as analgesics, are often the first line of defense for quickly relieving pain. They are classified into three categories based on their potency.

  • Level 1: aspirin, acetaminophen, ibuprofen.
  • Level 2 (complements or replaces Level 1): codeine, dihydrocodeine, dextropropoxyphene, and tramadol.
  • Level 3: morphine and opium derivatives.

To avoid taking too many medications, whip up a small salad dressed with olive oil—it will relieve your pain! Olive oil contains oleocanthal, an anti-inflammatory similar to pharmaceutical products such as ibuprofen.

Good to know: Many creams containing pain relievers are applied with a soothing massage. You can also massage yourself with essential oils that have beneficial properties, such as argan oil, sweet almond oil, apricot oil, or wheat germ oil.

GLOSSARY (summary)


analgesic
Medication that works against pain. Analgesics act either directly on the centers of pain in the brain or by blocking the transmission of pain to the brain.
Synonym: analgesic.


anticoagulant
Medication that prevents blood from coagulating and therefore prevents clots from forming in the blood vessels.
Anticoagulants are used to treat or prevent phlebitis, pulmonary embolism, certain infarcts. They also prevent the formation of clots in the heart during rhythm disorders such as atrial fibrillation or in the case of an artificial heart valve.
There are two main types of anticoagulants:
  • oral anticoagulants, which block the action of vitamin K (antivitamin K, or AVK) and whose effectiveness is controlled by a blood test: INR (formerly TP);
  • injectable anticoagulants derived from heparin, the efficacy of which can be controlled by the blood assay of anti-Xa activity, Howell's Time (TH) or Cephalin Kaolin Time (TCK) depending on the products used. A regular dosage of blood platelets is necessary throughout the life of a heparin derivative.


antipyretic
Medication used to lower the body temperature during bouts of fever.


osteoarthritis
Wear of cartilage, responsible for joint pain and limitation of movement.


renal failure
Inability of the kidneys to eliminate waste or medicinal substances. Advanced renal insufficiency does not necessarily result in a decrease in the amount of urine excreted. Only a blood test and creatinine dosage may reveal this disease.


dosage
Quantity and distribution of the dose of a drug according to the age, weight and general condition of the patient.


allergic reaction
Reaction due to hypersensitivity of the organism to a drug. Allergic reactions can take a wide variety of aspects: urticaria, angioedema, eczema, eruption of pimples resembling measles, etc. Anaphylactic shock is a generalized allergic reaction that causes discomfort due to a sudden drop in blood pressure.


overdose
Excessive intake of a drug may result in an increase in the intensity of adverse effects or even in the development of specific adverse effects.
This overdose may result from accidental or voluntary poisoning for suicide, so consult your local Poison Control Center (listed in the appendix to the book). However, in most cases, overdose is the result of an error in the understanding of the prescription, or the search for an increase in efficacy by exceeding the recommended dosage. Finally, untimely self-medication may lead to excessive absorption of the same substance contained in different drugs. Some drugs are particularly prone to this risk because they are (wrongly) considered to be harmless: vitamins A and D, aspirin, etc. Stopping or decreasing drug intake helps to remove the disorders associated with an overdose.
