(Health-NewsWire.Net, June 12, 2015 ) Orlando, FL -- There are many drugs and other forms of treatments that are widely used by arthritis patients nowadays. Albeit these drugs can help reduce swelling and pain as well as slow down the progression of the disease, they are also known to cause side effects such as nausea.
The Arthritis Foundation provides some tips on dealing with nausea from arthritis medications. There are several pain relief drugs and other arthritis treatments that are very popular for their capacity to provide pain relief. However, they are also known to be top offenders.
According to rheumatologists, there are ways to combat side effects, such as nausea, caused by arthritis medications. This is something that patients should remember, especially those who are taking DMARDS, or Disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs, azathioprine, leflunomide, cyclophosphamide, antidepressants and all non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, or NSAIDs.
"One of the best ways to combat nausea is to simply discuss its frequency and severity with the doctor. This will help healthcare professionals adjust the dosages and timing of medications to help reduce the nausea risk," said VitaBreeze Supplements spokesperson, Michelle O'Sullivan.
Healthcare professionals can also prescribe a nausea medication to help patients deal with the side effects. Patients should also take the nausea medications immediately if they feel nauseated or if their condition is severe. It is also important that they consume three large meals on a daily basis. They can also divide the food into five small meals and select food items that are easy to digest. It can also be extremely helpful to stop eating when they are about to feel full.
Experts also suggest that patients should refrain from drinking too much liquid while eating to avoid triggering nausea. They can even consume lemon water or ginger ale to reduce their risk for nausea. Lastly, patients should let the food they have eaten settle for about 30 minutes and avoid doing vigorous activity.
"Following these tips can significantly help patients deal with nausea well. They need to follow these steps, especially if they are taking the above-mentioned drugs," added O'Sullivan.
Individuals who want to avoid nausea and other side effects are using natural alternatives such as glucosamine. These supplements are often made from natural ingredients and not associated with side effects.
In addition to providing pain relief and not causing side effects, glucosamine is also popularized by its capacity to improve mobility among individuals with arthritis. There were even many sufferers who reported that the natural alternative has significantly helped them do their daily activities again (http://www.amazon.com/Glucosamine-Sulfate-Chondroitin-Supplement-Turmeric/dp/B00DUMO9X4/).
