Bahaya minyak Angin kepada kanak-kanak dan bayi

Cerita tentang bahaya penggunaan minyak angin ke atas kanak-kanak kecil dah lama aku tahu dari emel seorang rakan..

baru-baru ni..aku terima lagi emel pasal ni..so untuk rakan-rakan yang belum tahu lagi perkara ini..marilah kita beringat tentang bahaya minyak angin ni.

Alhamdulillah sempat dapat emel ni sebelum dapat baby Sulung..so aku beringat sangat pasal perkara ni dan ingatkan orang tua. Since dah ada Agel ni, minyak angin memang sangat tak diperlukan lagi.Syukurlah ada pilihan yang lebih sihat.

Ceritanya begini..


Bahaya Minyak Angin! Parents Please Read!

Ini untuk pengetahuan awak dan bolehlah awak sampaikan atau pesan kepada kawan-kawan tanpa mengira kaum agar apa yang berlaku kepada anak saya tidak berulang kepada anak kawan-kawan kita dan juga umat manusia seluruhnya.

Ahmad Tarmizi Ahmad Basri ( anak kesayangan saya yang kelima) 3 tahun.


17/08/04-Demam biasa dan dibawa ke klinik untuk perubatan

18/08/04-Masih deman dan perut kembong akibat tak selera makan kerana sakit tekak (bengkak)

19/08/04-Saya kurang senang dengan kesihatan anak saya dan bawa dia berjumpa doktor pakar. Setalah diperiksa soalan pertama yang doktor tanya kepada saya serta isteri saya ialah??ada sapu apa-apa minyak di perut? bererti sebagai doktor dengan ilmu kedoktorannya dia tahu bahawa puncanya adalah disebabkan minyak angin.

Anak saya dimasukan ke wad. Dia dalam keadaan koma tanpa membuka mata, berkata-kata, bergerak dan pernafasan pun dibantu dengan alat penafasan oksigen. Darah, kencing diambil bagi tujuan pemeriksaan.

Keputusan pemeriksaan :


Hati anak saya bengkak teruk disebabkan minyak angin telah menyerap masuk ke dalam tubuhnya. Kencing anak saya juga mengandungi minyak tersebut. Kesemua saluran darah menghadapi kesukaran akibat minyak itu. Anak saya tak sedarkan diri dan terus koma. Dia dibawa ke wad ICU dan dirawat oleh 6 orang doctor, antara 6 orang doctor, 2 darinya adalah dari Jerman.

Kedua belah kakinya ditebuk untuk memasukan ubat dan oksigen dengan mengunakan tiub. Kedua tangan juga ditebuk untuk memasukan glukos dan darah Kepala juga ditebuk di bahagian dahi untuk memasukan cecair ubat.

Saya disuruh oleh pihak hospital untuk tandatangan hampir 7 keping document untuk membenarkan anak saya diselamatkan dengan apa jua risiko tanpa menyalahkan pihak doctor. Saya bersetuju.

AlhamdullilAllah. . Anak dapat diselamatkan akhirnya dengan izin Allah dan kini dia telah dipindahkan ke wad biasa. Dia telah pulih hampir 80% dan sudah mampu untuk memanggil saya BAPAK bila saya disisi.

Iklas? Ketika anak dalam keadaan sedemikian segala harta, motor besar, kereta dan semua yang ada di dalam dunia ini tidak bernilai lagi. hampir 3 hari saya tak makan langsung dan air mata sentiasa berlinangan, saya seolah hilang malu dan tak bernyawa.

Azah , tolong pastikan jangan ada walaupun satu botol minyak-minyak yang dibeli direct dari penjual tepi jalan, penjual rumah ke rumah, pemberian dari jiran dan sebagainya , kerana mungkin ianya akan membunuh anak kita sebab kita sendiri pun tak tahu isi kandungannya.

Tergerak hati saya untuk memberitahu awak dengan harapan pengajaran ini dapat membantu anak orang lain dari menjadi mangsa MINYAK seperti anak saya.

Terima kasih

Dear all,



I just got back from Lam Wah Ee after visiting Basri?s 5th child, Tarmizi who is just 3 years old. His condition has stabilised but he is still very much unconcious. He has wires and tubes all over his little body which was also jittering spasmodically. In case you would like to visit him, his room is No.207, located at 2nd floor ' s children ' s w a rd.

I was informed by the experts that they found traces of ' OIL ' in his urine & blood after performing various diagnostic measures. This OIL has damaged his internal organs such as the Liver (causing it to enlarge and caused breathing difficulty), entered into his cerebral structure and possibly damaging his kidney too , etc.


What I would like to share with you is the reason WHY??? What was the CAUSE???

All this happened when he was having high fever and his ' orang tua ' rubbed a lot of ' minyak angin ' on his stomach to prevent him from ' kena angin ' . I believe a lot of us have the tradisional understanding of doing so, including myself.

Well, you better STOP !!! The experts explained that this ?minyak angin? will be easily absorbed into our blood especially in children as their skins are tender and allows maximum penetration. Certain OILs contained harmful ingredients eg: methil silicilate and at high dosage, is a POISON to children and especially feotus.

The effect is worsen when we are sick and our liver has to work overtime to neutralise the toxins. The OIL may enter our blood when our liver fails to filter it. That?s when the problems start !!! It may not be sufficient to kill an adult but for children, the result could be fatal.

This is NOT a joke !!! You may not believe this entirely but if you do, it is good to share with your relatives and friends.

Thank you.

Jangan Obses minum susu lembu

Aku memang dah lama terbaca yang Susu lembu bukanlah bagus sangat untuk diminum.
Memang secara amnya, kita telah di war-warkan untuk minum susu untuk tulang yang sihat, tapi susu juga boleh membawa kepaada banyak penyakit.

Sebenarnya aku pernah terbaca bahawa orang Eskimo, yang jarang minum susu lembu, kadar kes Osteoporosis jauh lebih rendah dari orang yang tinggal di bandar atau kawasan ternakan. Susu boleh menyebabkan banyak mukus dihasilkan di dalam badan, especially tak bagus untuk pengidap athsma atau lemah paru-paru. Sejak aku kurang minum susu lembu, aku memang sangat jarang mudah selsema.Sebenarnya kalsium boleh didapati dari sayur-sayuran selain dari susu lembu.Kalau tak pun, carilah supplement kalsium yang bioavailable dan selamat untuk buah pinggang kita.

Syukurlah aku memilih untuk menyusu sepenuhnya anak ke 3 ku sekarang. Niat di hati aku nak fully breastfeed him hingga berumur 2 tahun seperti yang disyariatkan di dalam Al-Quran. Aku dah menyatakan hasratku kepada Hubby, alhamdulillah dia sokong. Sekarang pun dia selalu bagi hint bila Harith yang berumur 5 bulan lebih sekarang dah mula hisap ibujari kaki. Mak mertua asyik cakap "Dah lapar ke? Nak makan ye?" Nada bertanya seolah bagi hint aku kat aku suh bagi makan cepat. Hubby pulak menjawab, "Tak payah makan lah. Biar menyusu je sampai umur 2 tahun. Belum makan pun badan dah semangat". Sekarang dengan hanya menyusu je pun berat Harith sekarang dah 7.3kg. Nampaknya, dulu masa dengan anak sulung, misi untuk aku menyusu badan sahaja anak-anakku sekurang-kurangnya selama 6 bulan berjaya. Both yang 1st dan 2nd daughter aku dapat susukan hingga 7 bulan.Kini ada misi kedua pulak untuk menyusu sehingga 2 tahun. Aku harap aku mampu. Aku pun tengah kuatkan azamku.Aku pun kena cukupkan nutrient, kerapkan menyusu dan mengepam untuk terus tingkatkan susu badanku. If ramai la ibu macam ku, alamatnya tak laku la susu formula di pasaran.

Ini aku ada terbaca artikel pasal susu yang menyebabkan penyakit diabetes, jantung, autisme & Schizophrenia. Hanya untuk tambahan ilmu.Terpulang untuk terima atau tidak kenyataan tersebut.

My 4 yr old son was recently put on singulair for his asthma. He went from being a little boy who settled straight down to sleep at night to a boy who was running around his bedroom very hyper and not being able to sleep at night. After a week of this we started to give him the singulair tablet in the morning and this resulted in him getting in to trouble at school and becoming very aggressive. After 2 weeks he is now completely off singulair and I have my happy little boy back! -- By fraser2004 Reply (1) replies Private Message me

I am so glad to have found this site. We are taking my 2 1/2 year old son off Singulair immediately. He has been experiencing a rash on and around his ears, around his hairline, back of his neck and shoulders, down his arms to his wrists and on his face and below his chin - almost everywhere above the neckline. At first we thought it was a reaction Singulair and took him off the medication. When it didn't subside, we took him to his pediatrician's and they told us it was a heat rash due to a reaction to sunscreen and sweat. Since I have had that reaction myself, we agreed with the dr's diagnosis. We restarted him on Singulair and the rash only got worse. We've taken him off the Singulair and will be contacting his allergy/asthma doctor immediately about this reaction. We are not sure if he has experienced other side effects - we have seen an increase in him crying when he goes down for bed and wanting to snuggle, as well as not wanting to be touched on the legs (not sure if that's due to his scraped knees or not). Unfortuately, it's difficult to get a 2 1/2 year old to tell you exactly where it hurts. Thanks for the information - we now know that we were correct in the beginning and that our son does not have to go through this any longer and can enjoy his summer. -- By mominmichigan Reply (1) replies Private Message me

My husband has been on Singulair for ten years now. It was a miracle drug for us as his asthma and allergies were ruining his quality of life. Little did I know that the Singulair would have such drastic effects as well. He is a police officer who has been through some traumatic events in his career. I attributed his irritability, depression, anger, severe nightmares, heartburn, weight gain, and puffy swollen eyes to post traumatic stress disorder. He stopped taking the medication about two weeks ago after his prescription ran out and he saw the FDA report. He is once again the man I fell in love with. Now I know what has been causing all of the changes in him, and we have decided he will never take Singulair again.-- By skelswick Reply (1) replies Private Message me

I am a 61 year old female and I had sinus surgery in Sept. 2008 and started taking Singulair about a week after the surgery. I started to gain weight very fast after taking the singulair. I stopped taking the medicine and lost 17 pounds without any strict diet, I started back taking the meds. after being off for about 3 months and have gained the 17 plus pounds back. The singulair helps my allergies but I hate the weight gain. -- By shirleyannwesley Reply Private Message me

Extreme aggression and anger in my 2 year old. He has been on singulair for six months now and has been kicked out of two schools for biting and hitting for no reason(sometimes when the victim was asleep). Our allergist told us to take him off the drug three days ago and we can already see much improvement.-- By cbake00 Reply (1) replies Private Message me

My 13 year old daughter has been taking singulair for 8 months, and started suffering from severe depression 6 months ago. We intervened and prevented her from commiting suicide, but barely. We never corrolated it with the Singulair until a visit with her pediatrician today. I am so sad I want to cry. I am the one that suggested to her asthma specialist that she be put on Singulair. I am so fortunate her pediatrician caught this. We couldn't figure out why her personality suddenly changed.-- By mmmc2 Reply (1) replies Private Message me

My 11 year old step-daughter has been on Singulair for 3 years and has had trouble sleeping - waking up 8-10 times nightly, sometimes with terrible nightmares as listed on some of the other posts. Thank you so much for sharing this info. We took her to an ENT today and the only thing they offered was to take out her tonsils and adnoids but the were basically normal - all they wanted was money the way I see it. We are taking her off all her meds tonight; she also takes Asmanex, Nasonex and Allegra.-- By evie0727 Reply (1) replies Private Message me

I have been taking Singulair for allergies for about 4 months. At first I took it in the evening at about 9pm and hour before bed. Almost immidiately I felt very tired, sore throat, ear ache, increased tinnitus, irritable, and had aches and pains. So I stopped it for 10 days for it to clear out of my system and started again but this time I took it in the afternoon about 3pm and the difference is amazing, i've had absolutely no side affects, and feel like a new person. Maybe that's what people need to think about doing. The drug is at is most potent for the first 2 - 3 hrs, then slows down, so taking it at night is not a good idea, even though that's how it's prescribed.-- By gbj2usa Reply Private Message me

I am so thankful that our MANY voices are finally being heard I am grateful that the FDA is finally forcing MERCK to add a warning to its label, but we must still keep fighting until there is a blackbox warning on this medication. My daughter committed suicide after three years of hell on this medication. The world has lost a beautiful, fun, and highly intelligent young woman because MERCK is so concerned about its billions of dollars in sales from Singulair.
If you have had any side effects PLEASE REPORT TO THE FDA! It is up to us to make them aware of how devastating this medication can be.-- By sarahsmom Reply Private Message me June 13th20093:24 PM

As i read some of the news reports on the new FDA comments,i see we are referred to as a handful of reports,the very words handful conjure up a picture of 10 not the thousands that there actually are.Also i noted missing from the news reports was ,that this drug is largely given to children,as young as 6 months,not for 10 days or 2 weeks but everyday,for as long as they need it.i know myself trying to convince my doctor,that my sons depression,insomnia and anxiety,came from this drug was impossible,so i fired him.I am wishing the best to everyone that has suffered,and ask all to please report your adverse effects to the FDA-- By flindy Reply (1) replies Private Message me

What is Singulair

Singulair Basics:
Singulair is a prescription asthma medication that can be used to prevent and treat chronic asthma in pediatric patients as young as twelve months old.

What Singulair Is Used For:
In addition to treating children with asthma, Singulair is also used to treat children with indoor and outdoor allergies.

Forms Of Singulair:
Singulair Oral Granules (ages 12 months to 5 years)
Singulair Chewable Tablets 4mg (ages 2 to 5 years)
Singulair Chewable Tablets 5mg (ages 6 to 14 years)
Singulair Tablets 10mg (ages 15 and above)

Singulair Facts:
Montelukast sodium, a leukotriene receptor antagonist, is the active ingredient in Singulair
leukotrienes are thought to cause many allergy and asthma symptoms, and so blocking them with Singulair may help control your child's symptoms.

Singulair comes as an oral granule that can be sprinkled on applesauce and as a chewable tablet, making it easy to give to young kids who can't swallow pills and won't drink a liquid allergy medicine

Other facts about Singulair:
Singulair can be taken just once a day

Children with asthma should take their Singulair in the evening, although children with allergies can take it whenever it is convenient, but preferably at about the same time each day

Singulair Oral Granules can be dissolved in a teaspoon of infant formula or breastmilk, mixed with a spoonful of soft baby food, like applesauce, carrots, rice, or ice cream, or put directly in your child's mouth

Singulair Side Effects:
Singulair is generally well tolerated by children. The most common side effects include stomach pain, stomach or intestinal upset, heartburn, tiredness, fever, stuffy nose, cough, flu, upper respiratory infection, dizziness, headache, and rash. Be sure to tell your doctor right away if your child taking Singulair gets a feeling of pins and needles or numbness of his arms or legs, flu-like illness, rash, or severe pain and swelling of his sinuses.

Less common side effects include agitation and aggressive behavior, allergic reactions, hives, and itching, bad or vivid dreams, increased bleeding tendency, bruising, diarrhea, drowsiness, hallucinations, hepatitis, indigestion, pancreatitis, irritability, joint pain, muscle aches and muscle cramps, nausea, palpitations, pins and needles/numbness, restlessness, seizures, swelling, trouble sleeping, and vomiting.

Also, the FDA has issued an 'early communication' about "a possible association between the use of Singulair and behavior/mood changes, suicidality (suicidal thinking and behavior) and suicide."
What You Need To Know:
In the latest National Asthma Education and Prevention Program clinical practice guidelines, leukotriene receptor antagonists, such as Singulair, were classified as alternative treatments for children with persistent asthma. Inhaled corticosteroids were the usual preferred treatment, adding on a long-acting inhaled beta2-agonist for those with moderate or severe symptoms.

Other important information:
Children should not take Singulair for the immediate relief of an asthma attack. They should use their rescue inhaler instead.
You may take Singulair either with or without food.

Long Term Side effects of Singulair for baby or toddler

Di sini I would like to share Pn Nurafizah story after giving her baby this medication.She share this in SI forum.

Re: pneumococcal vaccine
hi mamadhea, lama dah tak nampak mama post msg kat SI. lama juga menyepikan diri ek?

saya nak tambah sket pasal pneumonia ni sebab anak saya pun pernah kena pneumonia ni, tapi viral pneumonia iaitu yang disebabkan bakteria. last sekali tahun lepas masuk hospital putrajaya 5 hari gak la.

anak saya itu kes ketiga masuk hosp sebab bronkolitis dan viral pnuemonia. sedey sangat.

dan yang paling sedih sebab saya tak tahu pun selama ni ade ubat yang diberikan oleh doktor sebenarnya yang menjadi 'racun' kepada anak saya. bila saya tahu akan hal ini seharian saya berfikir dan menitik air mata saya bila teringatkan kesan yang dialami oleh anak saya sehingga kini.

racun yang saya maksudkan disini bukanlah yang menyebabkan kematian tetapi yang telah mengubah personaliti anak saya daripada seorang anak yang baik, periang kepada yang tantrum yang amat sangat dan kemurungan.

kepada ibu-ibu yang biasa dengan anak yang pernah kena bronkolitis atau pneumonia mesti pernah ambik ubat ni kan, Singulair. last time after admitted from hospital saya request ubat untuk kuatkan paru-paru anak saya sebab sebelum ni anak saya pernah disupply ubat ni oleh hospitak swasta (kerajaan tak bagi biasanya sebab ubat ni mahal). ia berbentuk serbuk dan perlu dicampurkan bersama makanan atau minuman dan dimakan setiap petang.(makan malam la).

i have read alot about side effect ubat ni from internet selepas seorang dr yang saya jumpa tak recommend saya guna ubat ni sebab ade kesan psikiatri effect. selepas saya baca banyak artikel dan pengalaman orang-orang yang menggunakannnya di internet, ya it is true, it also happenned to my daughter as well. anak saya jadi seorang yang temper, kuat tantrum, suka menghempas-hempas diri bila mengamuk. dan yang paling nyata walaupun ubat tu dah lama tak ambik, kesannya masih lagi tinggal sampai sekarang. still kuat meragam.jadi saya just nak sampaikan pada ibu2 semua, berhati-hatilah dengan segala ubat, kena rajin cari info about side effect sebab setiap ubat ada side effectnya even very minimal.

TIADA BUKTI SAINTIFIK SUSU SOYA SESUAI UNTUK PEMBESARAN BAYI

SURAT ini ditulis atas kebimbangan terhadap berleluasanya aktiviti pengiklanan mengenai kebaikan susu formula bayi berasaskan kacang soya di media massa.

Kami sebagai pakar perubatan kanak-kanak, ingin menerangkan dengan terperinci mengenai kesan atau keadaan di mana penggunaan susu soya boleh disyorkan berdasarkan kepada maklumat saintifik terkini.

Susu ibu adalah pilihan terbaik untuk bayi yang sedang membesar. Sekiranya, penyusuan susu ibu tidak dapat diteruskan atas sebab tertentu, susu formula bayi berasaskan protein lembu adalah pilihan alternatif yang disyorkan. Protein soya adalah berasal dari sumber tumbuhan.

Secara amnya, kualiti protein dari sumber tumbuhan adalah lebih rendah berbanding kualiti protein dari sumber susu manusia atau dari sumber susu lembu. Ia disebabkan kekurangan sesetengah jenis asid amino yang amat diperlukan untuk pertumbuhan fizikal yang sihat. Tambahan pula, susu soya mengandungi kandungan aluminium dan "phyto-oestrogens" berlebihan yang kesan jangka panjangnya terhadap tubuh badan manusia masih belum diketahui dengan terperinci buat masa ini.

Banyak badan profesional seperti Akademi Pediatrik Amerika, Persatuan Gastroenterologi dan Nutrisi Pediatrik Eropah serta Persatuan Perubatan Australia tidak mengesyorkan penggunaan susu berasaskan protein soya kepada bayi pramatang dan bayi berusia kurang dari enam bulan.

Penggunaan susu soya hanyalah terhad kepada kanak-kanak yang menghidapi penyakit 'Galactosaemia' iaitu sejenis penyakit metabolik yang jarang berlaku dan kanak-kanak yang menghadapi masalah 'Isolated Lactose-intolerance' iaitu ketidakbolehan menghadamkan gula laktosa yang terkandung di dalam susu lembu dan manusia.

Kami juga turut melihat trend penggunaan susu soya sebagai susu gantian ketika berlaku cirit-birit. Susu soya dipercayai boleh memendekkan tempoh jangka masa cirit-birit. Ingin ditegaskan bahawa setakat ini, tiada bukti saintifik menyokong kenyataan di atas. Pertubuhan Kesihatan Sedunia menyarankan kepentingan strategi memastikan pengambilan cecair dan elektrolit yang mencukupi ketika cirit-birit.

Penggunaan susu berasaskan protein soya hanya terhad untuk jangka masa pendek kepada kanak-kanak yang disahkan mempunyai masalah menghadamkan gula laktosa disebabkan cirit-birit (secondary lactose intolerance) dan tidak perlu disambung penggunaannya untuk tempoh jangka masa panjang. Susu berasaskan protein soya juga sering disyorkan kepada bayi yang mempunyai masalah radang perut atau kolik oleh ramai pengamal perubatan. Realitinya, tiada bukti saintifik menyokong amalan berkenaan.

Tambahan pula, masalah kolik di kalangan bayi tidak memerlukan sebarang rawatan spesifik kerana masalah ini tidak berbahaya dan akan pulih dengan sendirinya. Penggunaannya di dalam rawatan asma adalah satu lagi keadaan di mana susu berasaskan protein soya digunakan tanpa indikasi tepat. Sekali lagi, tiada bukti saintifik yang menyokong amalan ini.

Peranan susu berasaskan protein soya di dalam rawatan masalah alahan kepada protein lembu tidak dapat dinafikan, tetapi ingin ditegaskan di sini bahawa masalah alahan protein lembu jarang berlaku dan sekiranya berlaku, penggunaan susu berasaskan protein soya hanya terhad untuk bayi berusia 6 bulan ke atas yang disahkan oleh pakar perubatan bahawa bayi mempunyai masalah ini. Kami berharap penerangan yang diberikan dapat meningkatkan pemahaman masyarakat mengenai peranan susu berasaskan protein soya. Ia adalah satu sumber nutrisi alternatif, tetapi penggunaannya terhad kepada keadaan tertentu saja.
