Anti-inflammatory drugs for 2 years old

Two-year-old babies have relatively low resistance and are prone to diseases such as colds and flu, so they need to use anti-inflammatory drugs. The use of anti-inflammatory drugs for babies is different from that for adults. Good medicine tastes bitter but is good for the disease, but children do not understand this. If the medicine is too bitter, it will be difficult for babies to swallow it. Therefore, the medicine is generally made into a sugar-based one, so that it is easier for babies to take anti-inflammatory drugs. Let us now learn more about the knowledge related to anti-inflammatory drugs.

Anti-inflammatory drugs, in mainland China, usually refer to antibiotics or anti-inflammatory drugs.

If it is for infectious inflammation caused by infection, anti-inflammatory drugs actually refer to antibiotics. If the inflammation is not caused by infection, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents or steroids are used medically to suppress the inflammatory response.

In China, calling antibiotics anti-inflammatory drugs has exacerbated the abuse of antibiotics to a certain extent.

Inflammation is what we usually call "inflammation". It is a basic pathological process dominated by defense response that occurs when biological tissues are stimulated by certain damaging factors such as trauma, infection, etc. The local manifestations of inflammation are redness, swelling, heat, pain and functional impairment, and are also accompanied by systemic reactions such as fever and changes in peripheral blood leukocyte counts. Normally, inflammation is beneficial and is the body's automatic defense response (although the patient may feel pain and other discomfort). But sometimes, inflammation can also be harmful, such as attacks on the body's own tissues, inflammation occurring in transparent tissues, and so on.

Inflammatory response is not the same as infection, even though inflammation often occurs due to infection. Inflammation is one of the body's responses to pathogens.

Steroid anti-inflammatory drugs

Steroids are a class of substances that are naturally synthesized by the body, commonly known as hormones, such as cortisone, hydrocortisone, dexamethasone, etc. When used in medicine, glucocorticoids are the most common anti-inflammatory drugs.
