About National Food & Drug Interaction Education Week
Health , United States
Ends: Oct 24, 2021
DESCRIPTION:
Each October Pharmacists Planning Service, Inc. sponsors Food & Drug Interaction Education Week in October.
Consumers are often unaware the some medications are affected by the foods we eat, herbs we consume, what we drink and even habits like smoking. We call this a food-drug interaction. It is usually not necessary to change drug therapy or our diet greatly to avoid food-drug interactions. However, some minor changes with certain drugs may be necessary.
Medicine can treat and cure many health problems. However, they must be taken properly to ensure that they are safe and effective. These have powerful ingredients that interact with the human body in different ways, and diet and lifestyle can sometimes have a significant impact on a drug's ability to work in the body. Certain foods, beverages, alcohol, caffeine, and even cigarettes can interact with medicines. This may make them less effective or may cause dangerous side effects or other problems. Changes in a medicine's effect due to an interaction with food, alcohol or caffeine can be significant. However, there are many individual factors that influence the potential for such variations, like dose, age, weight, sex, and overall health.
