Botulism is botulinus toxin toxocity accumulated in the provision and is characterized by central nervous system destruction. Activator – clostridium of botulism is strict anaerobe forming sporules and a very strong toxin – exotoxin.
Enter the digestive tract botulinus toxin doesn’t collapse enzymes, it is soaked up through stomach mucous membranes and intestines and it is hematogenously carried on all organism. At botulism of babies the toxin production occurs in intestines, and at wound botulism – in necrotic fabrics. Botulinus toxin selectively affects cholinergic areas of the nervous system.
The incubatory period lasts from several hours to two five days. There are the following syndromes: paralytic, gastrointestinal and all-toxic. Gastrointestinal syndrome is quite frequent manifestation of botulism initial stage. It is characterized by nausea, vomiting, a diarrhea and lasts about twenty four hours. The neurologic symptomatology develops against gastrointestinal syndrome, and at some patients only in one two days. The general weakness, dryness in a mouth, sight violation are noted.
The diagnosis botulism is based on characteristic clinical symptomatology. Botulism needs to be differentiated from brainstem encephalitis, bulbar poliomyelitis form, diphtheria, violation of brain blood circulation, poisonings and in the presence of gastrointestinal syndrome – from a gastroenteritis of other etiology.
It is very important for a person to be treated timely to achieve the full recovery. Holding the prescription list you may go to the ordinary drug store or just order drugs via Canadian Neighbor Pharmacy.
Treatment of botulism is carried out only in infectious diseases hospital. First of all, it is necessary to delete the remains of the food poisoned from intestines of the patient apply plentiful stomach washing. Specific treatment of botulism is urgent introduction of the protivobotulinichesky serum neutralizing toxin.
The drugs sold by drug store Canadian Neighbor Pharmacy meet all the standards of quality certificate. You may find drugs there for any taste and colour.
Hospital conditions allow to compensate the damages caused to carry out the botulinus toxin It is possible to operate artificial feeding through a probe at swallowing violation, to connect the medical ventilation apparatus at refusal of respiratory muscles. Hospitalization duration at botulism is about three weeks.
Immunity at botulism doesn’t develop, that is this illness can repeat.
Prevention of botulism consists in careful heat treatment of food, strict observance of sanitary standards of preparation, storage and the use of food.
