Home-work-home - this carousel of worries is so addictive that some people forget to rest their tense nervous system. This lifestyle can lead to he alth problems, and therefore you can and should help yourself by choosing the right sedatives.
They are usually understood as drugs that have a relaxing, sedative effect on the nervous system, but do not disrupt its work. However, their mechanism of action is not fully understood. Some drugs have an inhibitory effect or reduce excitability, others are based on the principles of balancing excitability and slowing processes. There is only one effect - a person calms down a little, his reactions slow down, sometimes drowsiness appears.
Sedative drugs should not be confused with tranquilizers and drugs, their sedative effect is much less pronounced and does not depress the nervous system as much.
Today, a wide range of preparations of both synthetic and herbal origin is presented on the market. The most popular herbal remedies are tinctures of motherwort, peony and, of course, the familiar valerian -infusion of valerian officinalis. In addition, mint has some sedative effect. You should know that almost all sedative herbs begin to act in full force, only having accumulated in the body, that is, treatment should be carried out in courses. A single dose of such drugs alone will not have a significant effect, except as a placebo.
There are also drugs that have an almost instant sedative effect, but they, as a rule, already belong to the class of tranquilizers, and in addition to a sedative and even depressant effect on the nervous system, they also have a muscle relaxant effect, that is, they relax the muscles.
Sedative drugs of synthetic origin, as a rule, contain bromides or barbiturates. Reception of bromides is quite often accompanied by side effects, especially with a long course. Barbiturates are often used in sleeping pills, but in small doses they have a significant sedative effect.
Some antihistamines, such as Suprastin, also have a side effect of sedation, but the latest generation of allergy medicines no longer have such an effect. In addition, alcohol has a rather significant sedative effect.
Prescribing sedative drugs should be done by a doctor, the intake should also be under his control for timely dosage adjustments if necessary. There is no need to worry about addiction - the drugs of this groupdo not call.
It should be remembered that people whose work requires concentration and constant attention, as well as motorists, need to select drugs of this kind especially carefully, since all sedative drugs somewhat slow down the speed and quality of the reaction, especially with the wrong dosage.
