Injection Solution Rx

Inyección de la solución Rx

Traumeel® Solución de Inyección -La opción natural para el tratamiento de dolorLa idea detrás la mayoridad de medicamentos para dolor es esconder el dolor hasta que la herida o condición se sana. En general, el dolor asociado con una herida se sana entre dos o tres semanas sin ayuda. Pero, para algunos pacientes, este persiste por meses o hasta años. Usualmente no hay una causa directa para la continuación de dolor, pero cuando dura es considerado crónico. La causa puede ser varias razones, incluyendo el medicamento que no está funcionando como antes. Cuando esto sucede, dolor crónico exige cuidado de un equipo de profesionales especializados junto con otro enfoque terapéutico.

Un tratamiento probado para dolor crónico es la terapia de inyección, preferiblemente con medicamentos seguros y efi caces para uso a largo plazo. Traumeel® Solución de Inyección es exactamente ese tipo de medicación. Le puede apoyar su cuerpo para regular la infl amación excesiva, reducir el dolor y promover la curación. Traumeel® Inyecciones son indicados como monoterapia, para el tratamiento de heridas, condiciones infl amatorias y degenerativas del sistema muskuloskeletal y alivio de síntomas asociados como el dolor, y en combinación con Zeel® Solución de Inyección, para el tratamiento de condiciones infl amatorias y degenerativas del sistema muskuloskeletal, como la artrosis/osteoartritis y enfermedades reumáticas conjuntas.¹

Este debería ser considerado cuando:

• Usted no está recibiendo un adecuado alivio del dolor con terapia física o medicamentos para dolor sobre el contador, incluyendo ibuprofeno, acetaminofén sodio de naproxeno • Si usted experimenta efectos adversos con otras medicamentos para dolor and está buscando una medicación con una perfi l de seguridad excelente • Si usted está tomando varios medicamentos y quiere reducir el riesgo de interacciones de la droga a droga cuando añadiendo otro medicamento para el dolor. • Si usted no quiere o no puede tolerar AINES (medicamentos antiinfl amatorios no esteroides) de prescripción, inyecciones de esteroides o viscosuplementaciónes • Si usted está sufriendo de diabetes, enfermedades del corazón u otros factores de riesgo que puedan complicar el tratamiento con medicamentos estándares • Usted necesita un tratamiento entre ciclos de esteroides o después de recibir tratamiento de inyecciones de viscosuplementación/ácido hialuronico
