Painkillers are not regarded as
anything serious. They are the
perfect answer to a stressful day
at work, body pain from an
intense workout or a headache.
Painkillers can be bought
without prescription from any
pharmacy and people take
advantage of this to abuse
painkillers like Paracetamol and
Ibuprofen in search of instant
relief.
Misuse of these drugs can have
deadly effects on your health
and affect your lifestyle. We
explore reasons why you should
stop taking too many painkillers.
It can damage your kidney
Your kidney has the unenviable
task of filtering things that enter
the body. Drugs in the body
enter into the bloodstream and
can hinder the work of the
kidney by interfering with the
flow of the blood to the kidney.
This can lead to kidney failure in
the most severe cases. There is
also the added threat of damage
to the vital organs via
accumulation of painkillers in the
body. This is because the
accumulation of such drugs
slows down the process of
elimination from the body and
takes its toll on your organs.
It can cause addiction
Addiction is a big issue but the
conversation is mostly limited to
marijuana and other substances.
The use of painkillers is a bigger
problem as they are readily
available for purchase and are
constantly being abused by a lot
of people.
Addiction occurs when you keep
taking pills even when all you feel
is minimal pain or just want to
relax. Instead of taking drugs,
getting a massage to induce
sleep or taking a herbal mixture
might just be the answer.
It loses its effectiveness
Continuous usage of a particular
drug tends to reduce its potency
over time. You tend to notice this
when you constantly have to
increase the doses you take
before you get relief.
In order to avoid this, only take
painkillers when you are clearly
uncomfortable and in pain. If
not, your body will become
tolerant and you might have to
resort to more powerful drugs to
find relief to the detriment of
your body.
