Immune-boosting drugs

There are many kinds of drugs for enhancing immunity, and they cover many aspects. We need to figure out which one we belong to so that we can improve our immunity according to the cause of the disease. Nowadays, the pace of life in cities is fast and the pressure is high, so many people feel that their bodies are not as healthy as before, and their immunity is not as good as before. They are more prone to minor illnesses such as colds and coughs. Especially if children are often sick, parents will be more worried and want to give their children some medicine to improve their immunity.

If a child has low immunity, he or she will often have difficulty recovering from a cold and will have frequent fevers. However, there are many situations that can lead to low immunity in children. You cannot simply improve the child's immunity, and you cannot give the child some immunity-enhancing drugs casually. If taken improperly, it may have a counterproductive effect. Therefore, parents should first understand clearly before giving their children some immunity-enhancing drugs, so as to better ensure the child's health.

There are three main types of situations among children:

1. Because children's immune system is not yet mature or is somewhat delayed, their ability to adapt to the environment is low, making them prone to repeated infections, especially during seasonal changes and winter. This type of children is the most common, especially those who have just entered daycare institutions. We call this situation "daycare syndrome." Their onset often begins in autumn, winter or spring. Most of these children's conditions are temporary and generally get better after 1-2 years without the need for excessive medication.

Friendly advice: If your child is infected too frequently, you can use some bacterial extract drugs or proven effective immunomodulators under the guidance of an experienced doctor.

2. It is more common that children have certain allergic constitutions. Such children often have obvious symptoms after 1-2 years old, are prone to repeated infections, and need a long time to recover after an illness. It's not really due to low immunity.

Friendly advice: Finding out the cause and treating the allergy is the key.

3. The other type is that there is indeed a low immunity, which can be congenital or acquired, and there are many types. The illness of these children is often more serious and lasts longer. For these children, the problem cannot be solved by so-called supplements or things that "enhance immunity" sold on the market.

Friendly advice: Diagnosis and treatment must be conducted by a specialized immunologist.

In short, "improving immunity" is a general term, and there is no medicine or health product that can improve immunity for everyone. The correct and scientific attitude is to take different preventive and treatment measures according to different situations.

Everyone knows that drugs that enhance immunity should be used according to the symptoms, but there are too many types and brands of drugs that can enhance immunity on the market. Parents must be cautious when purchasing them and go to regular medical institutions or pharmacies to buy them. Don't blindly believe in advertisements.
