What are the adverse reactions of diabetic patients taking hypoglycemic drugs for a long time? Why?

Preamble: Hyperglycemia is a very common disease in daily life, so many diabetic patients have to take antihypertensive drugs for a long time to control blood sugar levels in the body. As the saying goes, drugs are three parts poisonous, and hypoglycemic drugs are the same, and there will also be *** and adverse reactions.

According to the results of the study, most hypoglycemic drugs will have a certain impact on the body, so the topic I want to share with you today is what adverse reactions will occur in diabetics who take hypoglycemic drugs for a long time?

1. Edema may occur.

Many diabetic patients need to inject insulin to control blood sugar levels in the body in the early stages of the disease, and mild edema will occur over time. However, diabetics do not need to worry about the phenomenon of edema, which can be relieved on its own and do not need to stop taking medication. This phenomenon does not occur in everyone and usually occurs in elderly patients under the age of 65.

Other than that. If you have a predisposition to heart failure or liver disease, try not to use insulin for diabetes. If you must use it, be sure to follow your doctor's advice and choose the appropriate amount for the injection.

Second, it may cause allergic reactions.

Diabetic patients will have certain allergic reactions after insulin injections. Some patients develop a certain bump, erythema, or papule at the injection site after insulin injection, which usually occurs within a few hours or days of insulin injection. The allergic reaction of other patients is mainly manifested in urticaria all over the body after insulin injection, sometimes accompanied by neurological angioedema, and even asthma, dyspnea, severe cases can lead to shock, and even death, so patients with insulin allergy should be desensitized**.

3. It may cause hypoglycemia.

Long-term use of antihypertensive drugs in diabetic patients may lead to the occurrence of hypoglycemia. However, not all antihypertensive drugs cause hypoglycemia, and some antihypertensive drugs generally do not cause hypoglycemia after use. In addition, hypoglycemia can be divided into severe hypoglycemia, mild hypoglycemia, and asymptomatic hypoglycemia according to symptoms.

It is important to be careful that older patients may experience coma when hypoglycemia occurs, so it is important to be aware at all times.

Regular use of hypoglycemic drugs will lead to damage to liver and kidney function, hypoglycemia, indigestion, and allergies, because the drugs are ***, and eating them regularly will cause damage to the body.

Discomfort and loss of appetite can lead to nausea, diarrhea, bloating, abdominal pain, constipation, and some harm, which is caused by the properties of the drug.

There will be some adverse reactions, which are likely to cause a series of symptoms such as dizziness, weakness, vomiting, nausea, weakness in the limbs, etc. If you take hypoglycemic drugs regularly, you will have a certain amount of ***.

It will affect appetite and cause gastrointestinal reactions, especially when you start taking it, you will have nausea, want to vomit, bloating and flatulence, and even have side effects of diarrhea, causing hypoglycemia, which can cause weight gain, and even cause allergies.

Long-term use of any drug has more or less a certain impact on the body, hypoglycemic drugs are no exception, according to the different types of hypoglycemic drugs, the harm to the body is not the same, sulfonylurea hypoglycemic drugs for a long time, can cause changes in appetite, such as decreased or increased appetite, decreased blood granulocyte count, thrombocytopenia, etc., occasionally liver injury, elevated aminotransferase, temporary increase in alkaline phosphatase, rare hepatitis, jaundice, hypothyroidism, hyponatremia, abnormal secretion of antidiuretic hormone, and temporary visual impairment, etc.

Long-term use of nonsulfonylurea hypoglycemic drugs can cause mild elevation of aminotransferases and weight gain. Long-term use of biguanide hypoglycemic drugs can cause lactic acid accumulation, severe lactic acidosis, long-term use can lead to changes in renal function, cause decline in kidney function, and can also interfere with the absorption of vitamin B12, severe can cause megaloblastic anemia, long-term use of glitazone hypoglycemic drugs, there is an increase in the risk of fractures and heart failure.

Long-term use of Western medicine to lower blood sugar may lead to kidney and liver dysfunction, especially biguanides, which have a great impact on the function of the liver and kidneys. If you have severe anemia or liver and kidney insufficiency, taking these drugs will lead to aggravation of the condition and adverse reactions.

Long-term use of hypoglycemic drugs, especially chemical drugs, can bring liver and kidney damage, hypoglycemia and other serious ***.

The process of taking medication can be lifelong, and over-reliance on medication will inevitably bring harm to the body.

Therefore, diabetic patients should try to minimize the use of hypoglycemic drugs. It is recommended that patients gradually reduce their dependence on drugs through the combination of exercise and diet. For diabetic people, special diets based on the principle of dietary therapy have appeared on the market, among which CP Zhenwutang Special Diet has solved a series of problems such as constipation, hunger and fatigue in diabetic patients, and has played a major role in reducing drug dependence in diabetic patients.

Disease analysis: The antihypertensive drugs that conflict with hypoglycemic drugs mainly include hydrochlorothiazide and receptor blockers (such as propranol), the former of these two drugs are diuretics and antihypertensive drugs, but they can interfere with glucose metabolism, make some patients have abnormal glucose tolerance, and blood sugar will rise on an empty stomach and after eating. Therefore, diabetic patients should use with caution.

In addition to dihydrogram urine thiouretics, compound antihypertensive drugs such as compound antihypertensive tablets, compound Luobuma tablets, and Zhenju antihypertensive tablets also contain dihydrogram urine thiopids, so they can also increase blood sugar; Similarly, the receptor blocker propranolol can also cause glucose tolerance abnormalities, and this effect can be maintained for more than 6 months after discontinuation of the drug. Suggestions: Diabetic patients can choose antihypertensive drugs are:

The receptor blocker prazosin, the vasopalin-converting enzyme gram preparation captopril, and the calcium antagonist nitrandipine. Calcium ion antagonists not only have no adverse effect on glucose metabolism, but also can reduce total blood cholesterol, add high-density lipoprotein, maintain myocardium and anti-atherosclerosis, and are suitable for patients with diabetes mellitus and hypertension and coronary heart disease. It is recommended that patients with high blood pressure take medication under the guidance of a doctor!

Taking medicine will not cause blindness, but if you don't take medicine, you will become blind if you have diabetes complications and severe cataracts. Diabetes, high blood pressure, and heart disease must be taken for life.
