In the rapidly increasing elderly population, diarrhoea as a result of drug therapy is an important consideration.
The elderly consume a disproportionately large number of drugs for multiple acute and chronic diseases. Drugs can compromise both immune colchicine and antibiotics diarrhea nonimmune responses. Aging decreases the quality and proportion of T cells which in turn reduces the production of secretory IgA, the primary immune response of the gut.
colchicine and antibiotics diarrhea Acid production in the stomach decreases with increasing age and this compromise its vital 'self-sterilising' function, thus increasing the antibiotics diarrhea of diarrhoea due to viral, bacterial and protozoal pathogens.
Other wellbutrin dosage colchicine and antibiotics diarrhea anxiety 300 to 450 defence mechanisms include the motility of the small intestine and the host-protective commensal bacteria of the colon.
Drug induced hypomotility may result in bacterial overgrowth, deconjugation of bile salts and diarrhoea. Colchicine and antibiotics diarrhea commonly, diarrhoea may occur due to hypermotility because of a cholinergic-like syndrome.
In the colon the host-protective commensal bacteria provide a powerful defence against pathogens.
Disruption of this commensal link by antibiotic antibiotics diarrhea may result in Colchicine and antibiotics diarrhea difficile supra-infection colchicine and causes diarrhoea through toxin production. This is colchicine and important in the elderly patient on chemotherapy for malignancy and those with multiple diseases. The organism responds antibiotics diarrhea vancomycin, metronidazole and bacitracin.
Metronidazole is the suggested drug of choice, with vancomycin reserved for relapses. Drugs also cause diarrhoea by interfering with colchicine and physiological processes.
Drugs impair fluid colchicine and antibiotics diarrhea antibiotics diarrhea activating adenylate cyclase within the small intestinal enterocyte which increases the level of cyclic AMP.
Examples of these drugs secretagogues are bisacodyl, misoprostol and chenodeoxycholic acid used to dissolve cholesterol gallstones.
ATPase may be inhibited by digoxin, auranofin, colchicine and olsalazine. A number of drugs cause osmotic diarrhoea including antacids containing magnesium trisilicate or hydroxide.
Lactulose is being used increasingly in compensated liver disease antibiotics diarrhea increase protein tolerance and prevent hepatic encephalopathy. Sorbitol, an osmotic colchicine and antibiotics diarrhea agent also used in some liquid antibiotics diarrhea preparations, induces diarrhoea by virtue of its osmotic potential. Another mechanism antibiotics diarrhea which drugs cause diarrhoea is by mucosal damage of the small and large bowel.
In the small intestine mucosal damage causes diarrhoea and fat malabsorption, as may occur with neomycin and colchicine. In the colon, for example, gold salts and penicillamine cause colitis of varying severity. Though the causes of diarrhoea are diverse, a drug-associated aetiology should colchicine and be considered and actively sought and addressed to prevent colchicine and antibiotics colchicine and antibiotics diarrhea complications of dehydration, electrolyte imbalance colchicine and undernutrition.
Generic drugs usually cost less. In some cases, they may not be available in every strength or form as the brand-name version.
