As you age, your body undergoes significant changes that can affect how you react to medicine. At Michoes Medical Centre, we understand the importance of ensuring that medications work effectively for older adults. Our team of experienced doctors and healthcare professionals are committed to providing safe and effective care for our patients in Kanyum, Kumi.
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), like ibuprofen, aspirin, and naproxen, can interact with prescription medications you take as an older adult. They can also cause problems such as constipation, irregular heartbeat, blurry vision, confusion, memory trouble, and dry mouth. Moreover, long-acting sulfonylurea drugs for diabetes, such as chlorpropamide (Diabinese) and glyburide (DiaBeta, Glynase), can cause low blood sugar, a condition called “hypoglycemia.”
It is essential to be aware of the potential side effects of certain medications as you age. Our doctors at Michoes Medical Centre are here to guide you through this process and help you make informed decisions about your healthcare.
