TAKING SEPTRIN:

also known medically as co-trimoxazole.
this is one of the simplest antibiotic ever discovered readily available and truthfully not so much understood and as a result has been abused alot without precautions.

as an antibiotic septrin helps in fighting bacterial infections especially on the respiratory tract why its normally used as phrophylaxis to pneumonia carinii sp causing pneumonia in HIV infected patients and also in combination with other antibiotics as a Urinary tract infection treatment agent based on th fact that it concentrates well in urine and is almost excreated unchanged in the body so its still active even at excreation in urine thereby treating whatever infection present within the urinary tract.

now in use septrin has two major problems, which are;

a. SEPTRIN SENSITIVITY.
oral use of septrin could result to a reaction and at times in its severity commonly reffered to as a stephenjohnson syndrome characterized by a severe uticaria or pruritus or rush all over the body and if left untreated could lead to fatalities.
its very common and its occurence warrants immediate discontinuation of the drug and management.
such is caused by the sulphur which forms part of its chemical formular and such patients are never eligible for its use again in their lifetime.

b. CRYSTALLURIA.
a major component of septrin namely sulphamethoxazole is prone to forming crystals in presence of urine and this is reffered to as crystalluria.
these glass like particulate crystals can be found on your kidneys and withing the urinary tract result to the injury of these organ systems.
passing urine becomes a big problem and eventually injury and discomfort makes one susceptiple to other infections.

these two major concerns with SEPTRIN makes it a very dangerous drug if not used correctly and for the right reasons.
to remedy the crystalluria patients are required to take alot of water when taking septrin and even when still on the drug to help dissolve these and even reduce chances of them forming.
however the solution to sensitivity is just avoid septrin if one is found to have sensitivity.

the core reason why we will always advice patients to avoid self medication and base treatments on doctors advice with the right route,duration of admissintration and the right dosage for use for different medications and treatment regimens.

its worth noting thats patients abuse septrin alot when they got flu sore throat or coughs which is wrong.
a lot of flu and sore throats are basically viral infections that dont respond to the sptrin treatment and as such one will be using a drug that has no effects to the ailment but have alot of effcets to you such as being predisposed to crystallluria.
also taking septrin for coughs will only work for bacteria infective coughs but coughs as a result of allergic reaction or cold willl never respond as such it becomes more of a misuse.

CAUTION: ONLY TAKE SEPTRIN WITH A RELIABLE ADVICE FROM A DOCTOR BEARING A PRESCRIPTION.

THE AFTERMATH OF VALENTINES

If you mistakenly had unprotected s*x yesterday with a guy or a lady whose status is unknown, here's what you MUST do today.

1. If you both can do a HIV test, please, go ahead and do it NOW, to know their status.

If you can't do the test, run to the nearest government hospital or Primary Health Centre and start Post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) which will last for the next 28 days. This will help to prevent "had I known"

2. If you're not ready to carry his baby, quickly rush to any of the Pharmacies that open on Sundays, and buy emergency contraceptive or go to a hospital for that.

Prevention is better than termination

3. While at the hospital ask for drugs you can take as prophylaxis against STDs UTIs which are a possible risk too.

4. If you can't do any of those today, tomorrow should not pass you by. The earlier, the better.

After 72 hours, don't bother. It would've been too late.

If you have more questions, my DM is open also text sms or whatsapp at 0722740717 and 0110096033.

HERPES SIMPLEX VIRUS:

The hidden disaster.

Those rashes or blisters in your ge***al area (private parts) or lips come and go, especially after s*x or when your skin rubs together.

Because of shame and stigma, most people suffer in silence…
but silence doesn’t stop the virus.

Read below to get the solution and how to prevent it.

What everyone should know

CAUSES

Herpes is caused by the Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV)

• HSV-1 – commonly oral herpes (cold sores)

• HSV-2 – commonly ge***al herpes
⚠️ Either type can infect the mouth or ge***als.

RISK.FACTORS

You’re at higher risk if you:
• Have close skin-to-skin contact with an infected person

• Have multiple s*xual partners

• Have unprotected oral, va**nal, or a**l s*x

• Have a weakened immune system

• Have a partner with active sores (visible or not)

How you can get it
Herpes spreads through direct skin contact, not dirt or poor hygiene.
You can get it from:
• Kissing

• Oral s*x

• Ge***al-to-ge***al contact

• Touching active sores and then another body part

⚠️ You can get herpes even when there are NO visible blisters.

TRANSMISSION

Transmission happens through contact with:

• Blisters
• Open sores
• Saliva
• Ge***al fluids

👉 This is called asymptomatic shedding — the virus spreads silently.

Symptoms (or no symptoms at all)
Some people have:

• Small painful or painless blisters

• Tingling or itching before sores appear

• Fever or body aches (first episode)

Others have no symptoms for years and still carry the virus.

Can herpes be cured?

❌ No permanent cure yet
✅ But it can be controlled very well

Once infected, the virus stays dormant in the body and may reactivate.

Treatment: what actually works
Antiviral medications help:
• Reduce outbreaks
• Shorten healing time
• Lower the risk of transmission.

TREATMENT:

💡 Treatment can be daily (suppressive) or during outbreaks only.

How to prevent herpes
• Avoid skin contact during active outbreaks

• Use condoms/dental dams (risk reduction, not 100%)

• Don’t share personal items during outbreaks

• Get tested if you or your partner has symptoms

• Honest communication with partners

• Take daily antivirals if advised by a clinician

In conclusion :
Herpes is common, manageable, and not a death sentence.
Stigma causes more harm than the virus itself.

🚨HEART BURN IN PREGNANCY- ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW AS A WOMAN 🚨

PLEASE SHARE WITH EVERY WOMAN🙏

Heartburn in pregnancy is a very common, often painful burning sensation in the chest caused by hormonal and physical changes.
It usually happens to 70% of women throughout Pregnancy.

This condition occurs when elevated Progesterone relaxes the lower esophageal sphincter and slows gastric emptying, allowing stomach acid to reflux into the esophagus. As pregnancy progresses, the enlarging uterus increases abdominal pressure, thus worsening the symptoms.

📸 KEY FACTS & CAUSES

🔹Hormonal effect: Progesterone relaxes the muscle between the stomach and esophagus and delays stomach emptying.

🔹Mechanical pressure: The growing uterus pushes the stomach upward.

🔹Timing: Most common in the third trimester (27+ weeks) but can occur at any stage.

🚨 RISK FACTORS: what can put you in this condition?

- Previous heartburn, prior pregnancies, multiple gestation, large fetus, and eating close to bedtime.

🚨 SYMPTOMS:
🔹Burning pain in the chest or throat.
🔹Sour or bitter taste in the mouth.
🔹Bloating, nausea, burping, or regurgitation.

NATURAL RELIEF STRATEGIES:
🔹Eat small, frequent meals.
🔹Avoid fatty, spicy, acidic, fried, or caffeinated foods.
🔹Sit upright while eating and avoid lying down for at least 2–3 hours after meals.
🔹Elevate the head of the bed by 4–6 inches rather than stacking pillows, which may worsen reflux by bending the body.

MEDICATION & MEDICAL CARE:
- Antacids: Calcium carbonate and alginate-based antacids are generally safe as directed by your doctor or pharmacist.

🚨 WHAT TO AVOID:
🔹 Sodium bicarbonate–containing antacids
🔹Use aluminum-containing antacids cautiously and only short term
🔹If symptoms persist: Doctors may prescribe H2 blockers (famotidine) or PPIs (omeprazole), which are considered safe in pregnancy.

🚨 See a doctor if symptoms are severe, persistent, or interfere with eating or sleep

AQUAGENIC PRURITUS?

Do you notice intense itching immediately after bathing, even when there is no rash or visible skin problem?

You are not imagining it, and it is not always caused by soap or dirty water.

This condition is known as Aquagenic pruritus.

🏷️WHAT IS Aquagenic pruritus.

It is a rare skin condition where contact with water triggers severe itching or burning on the skin, without hives, redness, or swelling.

The itching can be very uncomfortable and may last for several minutes to over an hour after bathing, making something as simple as a shower feel discomforting.

🏷️WHAT ARE THE CAUSES

The exact cause is unknown, but it may involve abnormal cellular processes in the skin, nervous system, or immune system.

The exact cause of this condition remains a mystery.

However, it's been attributed to abnormal skin function, nervous response, or immune system functions.

It can be hereditary, but no specific gene has been identified yet.

Other times, it may occur as a result of other conditions like polycythemia vera, chronic urticaria, and certain blood cancers.
(Don’t let the big words bother you)

🏷️WHERE DOES IT OCCUR

This condition can appear in nearly every part of your body but it's more common on the legs, arms, chest, and back.

Areas like your palms, soles, and mucous membranes ( inside the mouth and nose ) are typically left out .

🏷️TREATMENT AND PREVENTION

1. Medications: medications such as Antihistamines and SSRIs can be used based on the presentation

2. Coating your skin before showering acts as a barrier and may help offer some relieve

3. -Avoid hard bathing sponges

4. -If hot water triggers your symptoms, use warm or cold water instead

5. -Avoid harsh bathing soap

6. -Keep your skin moisturized and if possible

Having this experience can be challenging, but finding the right treatment and making lifestyle adjustments can significantly improve quality of life.

Don't be slow to consult a healthcare provider for a more tailored advice.

MEDICATION TIMING DURING TREATMENT.

most patients just take medication just cause they are prescribed and as a result these drugs end up.not working cause the timing is wrong as drug absorption and effectiveness is in the process affected.

Drugs operate at different environment and best at a given timing improving their overal effects alwo based on their formulation.
For example ;
Some drugs are basic in nature and as such will not function best in an acidic environment .
These factors affecting druh absorption and effectiveness includes and are not limited to;

1. PH
Some drugs require acidic environment to work these should be taken before food or on an empty stomach on the morning i.e ferrous others since they work to deter this acidity thwir timimg comes on the morning before food to deter acid production reducong the overal acid presence in the stomach enhancing their effectiveness e.i esomeprazole and omepraze.

2. FOOD
some drugs chemically too acidic become an irritant to the stomach lining leading too emesis or regurgutation such druhs should be taken with foid to avoid this others like antiglycemics should be taken before food to be effective.
Other drugs require food for proper absorbtion especially fat soluble vitamins and most aryemisinine based antimalarials yheae ate best taken with food.
some drugs are also affceted with the food we take for example IRON shoild not be taken with milk or aftwr milk as milk has chelants which will render it useless.
Fir sucj drugs avoid milk.

3. DRUG DRUG INTERACTION
Some drugs potentially affect other drugs effectiveness by either afffecting their absorption or enhancing it.drugs containing calcium and magnesium should.not be taken at the same time since they compete for the same transporters for absorption inside the body cells tje oberall effect is reduced active ingredients absorbed and failure.these druhs should be taken times apart to avoid this.antacids also have this effect on most drugs as sucj shojld be taken times apart when prescribed for use together.

4. DRUGS ACTION/EFFECTS
Some drugs like antihypertensives should be taken at the same time as instructed by the physician or the pharmacists some like diuretics lead to alot of urination so should best be taken during the day.
Hypnotics cause sleep and are best taken during the night same as most with sedative effects used during the day reduces the overall functioning of the user completely rendering them useless.
The effect of the drug pharmacologically can also affect timing of use.ie magnesium at night vitamin b complex during the day etc

Not all these factors considered when timing drugs administration amd use are covered but these are very predorminant ones.
We agree drug effectiveness is tagged to its timing to elicit the desired effects and also reduce chances of overdose or dose related toxicity.
Discuss with your physician or pharmacists best times of taking medication everytime you are visiting the hospital or taking any prescribed medications..

VAGINAL ACIDITY:

ever noticed that sometimes women underwares get bleached or decolorised with time?its never a bad thing or a disease its actually a plus sign.
Ladies va**na a heathy one operates at a PH of 3.8 to 4.5 and this is to prevent and protect the va**na from bad bacteria.
A protective bacteria lactobacilli species inhabit the va**na with the sole purpose of maintaining this.these they do by constantly producing lactic acid and hydrogen peroxide that kill harmful bacteria over growth preventing infwvtions and maintaining the statua quo.

To maintain this we advice women to;

1. Wear breathable cotton underwear
2. Change out of tight pants after sweating
3. Don’t do**he or try to “neutralize” acidity (that actually causes problems)
4. Use panty liners if discoloration bothers you
5. Eat a well baanced meal and stay hydrated
6. Avoid s*xual encounters with different men semen actaully raises this pH
7. Manage stress as streas also affects va**nal discharges
8. Avoid use of scented soaps during bath.
9. Maintain hygien washing just the outside of the v***a with just water no soap.
10. Avoid unnessary use of antibiotics especially not prescribed by your physician.they eradicate the bacteria living you vulnerable.
11. At times when my benefit from taking products that have probiotics loke yoghurr.

Now when should we visit the hospital?
When one notices any of these changes listed below promptly visit your clinic and seek treatment as this just means a disease and changes in ph
They include;

1. Bad or fishy smell
2. Itching, burning, pain
3. Unusual color discharge (green, gray, thick white)
4. Sudden big change from your normal pattern i.e me**es

Also note that menstrual flow also affects this pH raising it this explains why more women are prone to infections immediately after flow.
Hygien and priobiotic use prophylaxis could help remedy this. But its important to visit tje hospital for a more medical and approved approach.

HERBS FOR TREATMENT.

This is another controvasial topic in treatment and management of various ailments at home or within the hospital setup.
HERBS are natural plant parts either the bark the leaves the roots the flowers fruits sap drained from the bark which are prepared and consumed to achieve cure.

All world over herbs have been accepted to have an ability to cure and other countries like CHINA and INDIA have registered hospitals and hospices that use herbs and alternative medicines for treatments.

Its a known FACT also that various plants have also been exploited leading to the medicines that we know and use today.
However their use and admission to the formal treatment in our country has been a problem and this we will look at;

Plants ability to produce cure is based on several active ingredients that are manufactured in one or several parts of the plants.these at then extracted through boiling , soaking , marceration and imbibition.
The final resultant concentrate with water as a diluent or alcohol is then drunk rubbed or inhaled as a treament alternative.
Sometimes these are even burnt and the ashes used in treatment.
So what would these plants be containing that bring the cure?

The plants contain in their saps or resins active ingredients and are pharmacologically active capable of cure.

These includes;

1. Alkaloids
2. Flavonoids
3. Terpenes
4. Glycosides
5. Phenolic compounds
6.essential oils
7. Vitamins

These in the adequate and right amount can bring healing to various known ailments around.

However this also has been harmpered and at times blamed to toxicity and even fatalities when wrongly administered the reason the mordern medicine still largely shys off from including herbs as alternatives.

The reasons could be due too;

1. Toxicity of one or many plant active ingredients
2. Contaimination at preparation during storage and use.
3. Challenges of right dosage and amount to be administired correctly to avoid poisoning.
4. Duration of storage to ensure drug viability.
5. Proper extraction methods to max medicine ingrediates max concentrate.
6. Tradition inheritance that adulterates the drug info as passed from time to time.
7. Unknown untoward reaction to these plant extracts that could be lethal.

As shown above the potential to treat using plant extract can end up very lethal to the patients and eventually lead to death.
Same toxicity could.lead to damage to one or your several vital organs because success of these medicines are monitored thro a not so scientific conclusion but otherwise through the happenings after use.i.e

1. A patient is told that he will diarrhoea the disease or the infecting pathogen out but diarrhoea as we all know is a disease state that can signify poisoning or contamination hence very unreliable and requires treatment in itself.

2. Vomiting;
This is also challenging since vomiting also formspaet of signs and symptoms of a disease and increased vomiting is an alarm during treatment as the patient would easily slip into dehydration.

3. Urination:
Increased urine out put isnt equal to cure and isnt equal to detoxification.it remains as mode of excreation of wastes from.the body and may also signify infection intensity or kidney injury during treatment.

These are very unreliable monitoring trends and a patient can easily slip into crisis any moment hence the reason without proper research and regulations use of herbs alone or with convection medicine should be avoided and discouraged completely in adults children and the elderly.

Also note some of these plant active ingredients that ate very toxic to the body damaging the liver, kidney the heart even the brain.
They could have even permanent damage to the skin eyes or even ears.
Some of these known plant toxic active ingredients include;

1. Cumarines
2. Toxic glycosides
3. Arsenic agents in plants ie cassava
4. Toxic alkaloids etc

These can enter the body and in very small concentrations shut the body systems completely.
So avoid herbs avoid mixing them with other drugs and unless the process of extraction and use is refined herbs still have no place in modern treatment and this presents a huge gap for the government to invest in a regulate and modernise to be able to bring our known knowledge of herbs to use adequately and properly.
As at now use with CAUTION and if in use and one is sick or still sick please disclose to your physician that information may save a life.
