【大紀元2023年03月01日訊】(大紀元記者天睿澳洲悉尼報導)55種含有潛在致命成分的止咳藥在全澳被召回。監管機構表示,這些止咳藥和麻醉劑一起使用時可能導致病人出現過敏性休克,已經有一名患者因此而死亡。
福爾可定(Pholcodine)是一種有機化合物,可用於止咳祛痰和抗鼻黏膜充血藥,臨床上主要治療劇烈乾咳和中等程度的疼痛。
2月28日,治療用品管理局(TGA)宣布召回含有福爾可定的咳嗽藥,包括止咳糖漿和潤喉糖。該機構表示,在過去12個月中,全澳有50起疑似與福爾可定、麻醉劑共同使用後出現過敏的案例,至少已經有一人死亡。
許多治療感冒咳嗽的藥品中都含有福爾可定,包括Codral、Duro-Tuss、Bisolvon、Amcal和Benadryl乾咳糖漿等。
出售含有福爾可定藥品的藥店有七天的時間來召回這些藥品。
治療用品管理局負責人斯凱里特(John Skerritt)說:「如果你將需要接受全身麻醉,並且在過去12個月內服用過含有福爾可定的藥物,我建議你告訴你的醫療人員。醫療人員也應檢查將接受全身麻醉的病人在過去12個月內是否服用過含福爾可定的藥物。」
澳洲藥房協會(PGA)主席特沃米(Trent Twomey)對天空新聞說,含有福爾可定的藥物自20世紀50年代以來一直在銷售,是全國銷量最大的止咳藥,在接受手術麻醉前一年內服用過這種藥物的人可能出現過敏性休克,儘管這種症狀非常罕見,但非常嚴重,有可能致命。
