躁狂症人群饮食应注意什么?

2. 了解你的药物 Know thy meds

      Are your meds supposed to be taken with food or on an empty stomach? Is it OK to drink grapefruit juice while you're taking them? Have you checked lately? Some foods can interact with your meds in funny ways, or even stop them from working. For example, if you're taking lithium, it's important to watch your sodium intake, and many psychotropic medications become downright dangerous if you drink alcohol while taking them. If you haven't checked the PI sheet for your medication in a while, have a look. There might be a food-related instruction you've been forgetting.

      你平时是怎么吃药？是在饭后服用还是空腹的时候服用？服药时用西柚汁而不用水是正确的做法么？你最近有没有检查药物是否过期？有一些食物会与您所服用的药物产生化学反应，从而降低它的药效，甚至使其丧失药效。举例来说，如果你的药物中还有金属锂，那就一定要注意您在日常生活中的钠的摄入量；如果您在服用精神药物期间，同时饮酒，那么精神药品会变得很危险。如果您在服药过程中从未阅读过用药说明，那请您现在就看一看吧，您有可能并不知道这些药不能与哪些食物同时服用。
