【保健知多D】外用葡萄糖胺 vs 口服葡萄糖胺?
〈食葡萄糖胺就聽過,咁搽葡萄糖胺又得唔得呢?〉
首先說到葡萄糖胺(Glucosamine),總是跟關節痛離不開關係。
對,葡萄糖胺主要用來合成糖胺聚糖(Glycosaminoglycan, GAGs),然後用來合成軟骨裡的蛋白聚糖(Proteoglycan)[1],一般較常用於輔助紓緩、預防關節炎(Osteoarthritis)。
或許是因為關節炎是一種痛症,所以葡萄糖胺既有內服,亦有外用。
至於外用葡萄糖胺到底又有沒有效呢?
唔……暫時好像還沒有研究直接比較口服與外塗葡萄糖胺的功效,不過有一項研究顯示外塗葡萄糖胺、軟骨素(Chondroitin)和鯊魚軟骨(Shark Cartilage)或許能夠減輕關節炎所導致的膝蓋痛。[2]
不過值得一提,舉凡一些涉及主觀感受的病症,例如痛症,當中還有一個頗重要的因素,便是安慰劑效應(Placebo Effect)。
所謂「安慰劑效應」,簡單說,便是「你覺得有效便有效。」直接一點說,便是「心理作用」。
所以外用葡萄糖胺到底有沒有效、止不止痛,最後還是取決於用藥者的觀感,還真的見仁見智……

【疾病知多D】一場被痔瘡耽誤的勝利?
〈常用外用痔瘡藥速查〉
大家相不相信痔瘡(Haemorrhoid)原來可以改寫歷史?
嗱!據說當年拿破崙就是因為痔瘡發作而無法騎馬,結果慘遭滑鐵盧。
最後這場滑鐵盧之役(Battle of Waterloo)更加成為了拿破崙的成名戰役。
不過拿破崙恐怕未必想用這場仗成名……
所以痔瘡顯然遠較豬隊友還要可怕……
好!言歸正傳,如何KO痔瘡?
其實大家可能已經聽過市面上有一些外用痔瘡藥能夠紓緩痔瘡的症狀。
至於常用的劑型主要有軟膏(Cream)、油膏(Ointment)、栓劑(Suppository)三種。
其中說到痔瘡,軟膏、油膏一般俗稱「痔瘡膏」,至於栓劑則一般俗稱「痔瘡塞」。
至於常用的成分一般主要有以下五個:
一、局部麻醉劑(Local Anaesthetics),例如Benzocaine、Cinchocaine、Lidocaine (Lignocaine)
顧名思義,局部麻醉劑主要在人體局部範圍內暫時阻斷神經末梢的傳導功能,截斷疼痛的感覺,紓緩痔瘡所帶來的痛楚。
在副作用上,長期使用便可能會出現皮膚致敏(Skin Sensitisation)、全身性過敏反應,所以一般建議不宜連續使用超過5至7天。[1]
二、收斂劑(Astringent),例如尿囊素(Allantoin)、氧化鉍(Bismuth Oxide)、次沒食子酸鉍(Bismuth Subgallate)、秘魯香脂(Peru Balsam)、金縷梅萃取物(Witch Hazel Extract)、氧化鋅(Zinc Oxide)
收斂劑主要能夠凝固皮膚、黏膜裡的蛋白質並形成一種保護膜,便可能會減少黏液分泌、滲出液流出,從而有助減少患處受到刺激。
其中秘魯香脂還有輕微的消毒功效,便同時可能會減少患處出現感染的機會。
三、外用類固醇(Topical Corticosteroid),例如Hydrocortisone
外用類固醇能夠消炎、消腫,紓緩痔瘡的症狀。
其中針對痔瘡,如果是Hydrocortisone的話,一般不建議18歲以下人士使用,同時不建議連續使用超過7天。[2]
四、護膚劑(Skin Protectant),例如鯊魚肝油(Shark Liver Oil)
鯊肝油一般宣稱自己可以促進患處癒合、組織修復,不過暫時還是沒有足夠證據充分支持這種功效。[2]
五、酵母萃取物(Yeast Cell Extract)
酵母萃取物主要是啤酒酵母(Brewer's Yeast)的水溶性萃取物,據說能夠增加血管新生(Angiogenesis),同時促進膠原蛋白(Collagen)合成,一般宣稱自己可以促進患處癒合、組織修復。[1]
