Chicken pox

Varicella. The varicella (chicken pox) vacciae was approved ia April 1995 for immunisation of children. A single dose at one year of age is recommended. In the future it may be combiaed with measles, mumps, and mbeUa. [Pg.358]

Diaphoretic. Because it promotes perspiration by relaxing the pores, elder is a traditional remedy to help the body release toxins through the skin. It increases blood circulation and body heat near the surface of the skin. It has been used to treat blemishes, acne, herpes, psoriasis, measles and chicken pox. Parts used flowers, berries, leaves. [Pg.28]

Let s conclude this discussion of life with a short consideration of viruses. Viruses cause all sorts of problems for living organisms. The problems are the consequence of their ability to infect, and ultimately kiU, many types of cells— bacterial, animal, and plant—though each virus is quite specific in terms of the type of cell that it infects. There are many types of viruses. In people, they cause measles, mumps, influenza, AIDS, polio, potentially fatal diarrhea in infants and very young children, herpes, chicken pox, shingles, the common cold, and many other diseases, that may be fatal, serious, and not so serious. In other animals, viruses also cause any number of diseases, as they do in plants. Much effort has been, and continues to be, devoted to the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of viral diseases. [Pg.27]

A wide variety of organotin compounds developed by Carraher, Sabir, Roner, and others based on known antiviral drugs such as acyclovir and known antibacterial agents such as ciprofloxacin, norfloxacin, cephalexin (structure 11.21), and ampicillin inhibit a wide variety of viruses including ones responsible for many of the common colds, chicken pox, small pox, shingles, and herpes simplex. [Pg.369]

Individuals receiving immunosuppressant agents are more susceptible to infections than healthy individuals. Avoid exposure to chicken pox or measles. [Pg.789]

WraZ/nfecf/on. Treatment with tacrolimus ointment may be associated with an increased risk of varicella zoster virus infection (chicken pox or shingles), herpes simplex virus infection, or eczema herpeticum. [Pg.2068]

The word vaccination comes from vaccinia, the name of the virus now known to cause cowpox vaca is the Latin word for cow ). The term vaccination is now broadly used to describe the process of causing a mild disease in order to protect a person from a more dangerous disease. Vaccination is one form of immunization, exposing the body to a material to stimulate a protective response from the immune system. Vaccination is routinely used to prevent many illnesses, including measles, rnmnps, German measles (rubella), chicken pox, and polio. Many of these illnesses have disappeared or become very rare in developed countries that provide widespread vaccinations. Smallpox has been eradicated worldwide, thanks to... [Pg.35]

This condition is sometimes mistaken for Reye syndrome, a severe disorder that develops in children while they appear to be recovering from viral infections such as chicken pox or flu. Most cases of Reye syndrome are associated with the use of aspirin during these viral infections. [Pg.4]

By reacting with bacterial H2S the oral cavity and feces will be colored black. Bismuth and also salicylate when bismuth subsalicylate is used, are to a minor degree absorbed. Children should not take bismuth subsalicylate while recovering from the fiu or chicken pox, as epidemiologic evidence points to an association between the use of salicylate containing medications during certain viral infections and the onset of Reye s syndrome. [Pg.379]

Aspirin is epidemiologically associated with Reye s syndrome, a rare but often fatal consequence of infection with varicella, influenza and various other viruses, and salicylates are therefore contraindicated in children with chicken pox or influenza. [Pg.439]

The active immunity may be acquired following clinical infection (chicken pox, rubella, measles), following subclinical infection (polio and diphtheria) and following immunization with an antigen which may be killed vaccine, live attenuated vaccine or a toxoid. [Pg.431]

Noraial human Ig Normal human Ig is an antibody rich fraction and used to prevent measles in highly susceptible individuals and also provide protection against hepatitis A B, mumps, poliomyelitis and chicken pox. [Pg.433]

Specific human Ig These preparation are made from the plasma of the patients who have recently recovered from infection. The specific human Ig are used for the prophylaxis of chicken pox and hepatitis B, rabies and tetanus. [Pg.433]

Active immunity occurs when the organism is exposed to a toxin or infectious agent (bacterium, virus, or parasite) so that the immune system is stimulated. Most of your parents, grandparents, and instructors contracted measles, mumps and chicken pox when they were children and so are now naturally immune to such agents because their antigenic memory (B and T cells) is primed for a full scale IgG response. [Pg.194]
