29 Ιουλ 2024 · Many common medications affect thermoregulation, the process by which your body maintains a healthy temperature. Some of these medications, including antihistamines and diuretics, may make it difficult to stay cool on extremely hot days.
1 Μαΐ 2024 · A 2020 PLOS ONE study found that various commonly prescribed drugs interfere with the body’s ability to perceive and protect itself from heat, increasing the risk of hospitalization.
Weather. Commonly used medicines that may significantly increase the risk include diuretics, especially when combined with an angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor or an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB), anticholinergics and psychotropics. Initiation of individualized preventive measures prior t ….
30 Ιουλ 2023 · Thermoregulation is the maintenance of physiologic core body temperature by balancing heat generation with heat loss. A healthy individual will have a core body temperature of 37 +/- 0.5°C (98.6 +/- 0.9°F), the temperature range needed for the body's metabolic processes to function correctly.
9 Ιουλ 2024 · Some medications affect your thermoregulation—or the process by which your body maintains a steady temperature—and your fluid balance. For this reason, when temperatures rise and you start sweating more than usual, these medications can cause unpleasant side effects.
Randomised studies exposing humans to exertional and/or passive heat stress that investigated a drug identified by WHO compared to no drug/placebo were eligible. The primary outcome was core temperature (e.g., rectal, oesophageal, aural, tympanic). We assessed risk of bias (Cochrane’s Risk of Bias 2) and certainty of evidence (GRADE).
Drugs may cause increased body temperature in five ways: altered thermoregulatory mechanisms, drug administration-related fever, fever from the pharmacologic action of the drug, idiosyncratic reactions, and hypersensitivity reactions.
