Many older people who have emigrated from Vietnam to the United States continue to use the traditional medicines that they used in their country of origin. Clinicians trained in the West may not be familiar with these products. We reviewed 6 Asian traditional medicines that are popular among older Vietnamese people living in the United States. Each medicine has significant side effects that can lead to complications in patients undergoing surgery. Here, we present the case of a patient who used Cordyceps sinensis daily as a tonic and experienced prolonged bleeding after dental surgery.
许多从越南移民到美国的老年人继续使用他们在原籍国使用的传统药物。在西方接受培训的临床医生可能不熟悉这些产品。我们审查了6种在美国生活的老年越南人中流行的亚洲传统药物。每种药物都有显著的副作用,可能导致接受手术的患者出现并发症。在此,我们介绍一例患者,该患者每天使用冬虫夏草作为滋补品,在牙科手术后出现了长时间出血的情况。
