Mwinamwake mukudziwa kale kuti kumwa aspirin kungakhale kothandiza popewa matenda a mtima-ndiwo maziko a kampeni yonse yotsatsira mtundu wa Bayer Aspirin. Koma mwina simukudziwa kuti kafukufuku wodziwika bwino wa 1989 yemwe adalimbikitsa kugwiritsa ntchito mankhwalawa munthawi imeneyi anali azimayi opitilira 20,000 aamuna ndi azimayi.

Chifukwa chiyani? Pazambiri zamankhwala, amuna (ndi nyama zamphongo) akhala "nkhumba zazing'ono" zakuyesa-zotsatira, kuchuluka kwake, ndi zotsatirapo zoyesedwa zimayesedwa pamutu wamwamuna makamaka. Mu mankhwala amakono, amuna akhala chitsanzo; akazi nthawi zambiri amakhala pambuyo.

Tsoka ilo, kunyalanyaza zotsatira za mankhwala mwa amayi kukupitilizabe lero. Mu 2013, zaka 20 kuchokera pomwe mankhwalawa adayamba kupezeka, Food and Drug Administration (FDA) idadula mulingo woyenera wa Ambien kwa azimayi theka (kuyambira 10 mg mpaka 5 mg kuti atulutse pomwepo). Zikuoneka kuti amayi 5 peresenti ya omwe amanena kuti akugwiritsa ntchito mankhwala ogona olembedwa ndi dokotala poyerekeza ndi 3 peresenti yokha ya amuna omwe amakonza mankhwalawa pang'onopang'ono kusiyana ndi amuna, kutanthauza kuti amamva kugona masana pa mlingo wapamwamba. Izi zimadza ndi zovuta zazikulu, kuphatikizapo ngozi zoyendetsa galimoto.

Kafukufuku wina akuwonetsa kuti azimayi amakhudzidwa ndi mankhwala osiyanasiyana mosiyana ndi amuna. Mwachitsanzo, pachiyeso chimodzi, omwe amatenga nawo gawo ma statins anali ndi vuto locheperako mtima komanso sitiroko, koma odwala achikazi sanawonetse zomwezo. Chifukwa chake zitha kukhala zowopsa kupatsa ma statins-omwe nthawi zambiri amabwera ndi zoyipa zosadziwika-kwa azimayi omwe ali ndi chiopsezo cha mavuto amtima.

Nthawi zina, azimayi amachita bwino kuposa amuna omwe ali ndi mankhwala opatsirana pogonana a SSRI, ndipo kafukufuku wina akuwonetsa kuti amuna amachita bwino kwambiri ndi mankhwala a tricyclic. Komanso, azimayi omwe amakonda kugwiritsa ntchito mankhwala osokoneza bongo a cocaine amawonetsa kusiyana kwamaubongo poyerekeza ndi amuna, ndikuwonetsa njira yomwe azimayi amadalira mankhwalawa mwachangu. Chifukwa chake, kusiya zitsanzo zachikazi kumaphunziro okonda chizolowezi, mwachitsanzo, kumatha kukhala ndi vuto lalikulu pamankhwala ndi miyezo ya chisamaliro yomwe pambuyo pake imapangidwa kuti ithandize omwerekera.

Tikudziwanso kuti amayi amawonetsa zizindikiro zosiyanasiyana m'matenda ena akulu. Mwachitsanzo, azimayi akamadwala matenda a mtima, atha kumva kapena kumva kuti sanamvepo kupweteka pachifuwa. M’malomwake, iwo amakhala ndi mwayi wopuma movutikira, thukuta lozizira, ndi mutu wopepuka kuposa amuna. Ngakhale kugonana sikofunikira pazinthu zonse zaumoyo, ikakhala, nthawi zambiri kumakhala kovuta.

"Sitikudziwabe ngati [kugonana] kudzakhala kofunikira pa matenda aliwonse, muzochitika zilizonse, koma tifunika kudziwa nthawi yomwe zili zofunika," akutero Phyllis Greenberger, pulezidenti ndi CEO wa Society for Women Health. Kafukufuku. Posachedwa anali mgulu lamsonkhano wokambirana zakufunika kwakusiyana pakugonana pakufufuza zamankhwala, kothandizidwa ndi bungwe lake ndi The Endocrine Society.

Bungwe la Greenberger lidathandiziranso kuti lamulo la NIH Revitalization Act la 1993 lidutse, lomwe lidafuna kuti mayeso onse azachipatala a National Institutes of Health (NIH) apereke ndalama kuti aphatikizire azimayi ndi otenga nawo mbali ochepa. Pakalipano, gulu ili ndi limodzi mwa ambiri omwe akugwira ntchito kuti aganizirenso nyama ndi maselo omwe amagwiritsidwa ntchito pofufuza zachipatala - osati anthu okha.

Mwamwayi, NIH ikukakamiza kuti isinthe kwambiri pakufufuza. Kuyambira mu Seputembala chaka chatha, idayamba kukhazikitsa mfundo zingapo, malangizo, ndi zolimbikitsira zopereka kuti zithandizire (ndipo nthawi zambiri zimafunikira) ofufuza kuti azindikire kugonana kwachilengedwe ngati chinthu chofunikira pantchito yawo.
