1 REYE'S SYNDROME NATIONAL REYE'S SYNDROME FOUNDATION, PO BOX 829, Bryan, Ohio Or call 419/ Toll Free Reye's Syndrome is a very serious disease. Reye's Syndrome usually affects people from infancy through young adulthood; however, no age group is immune. Although Reye's generally occurs when someone is recovering from a viral illness, such as flu or chickenpox, it can develop 3 to 5 days after the onset of the illness. Its main targets are the liver and brain, it is non-contagious, and too often it is misdiagnosed as encephalitis, meningitis, diabetes, poisoning, drug overdose or sudden infant death. Early diagnosis is crucial. An individual should be watched during the two to three weeks following a viral illness for these symptoms, usually occurring in this order: Relentless or continuous vomiting Listlessness (loss of pep and energy with little interest in their environment) Drowsiness (excessive sleepiness) Personality change (such as irritability, slurred speech, sensitivity to touch) Disorientation or confusion (unable to identify whereabouts, family members or answer questions) Combativeness (striking out at those trying to help) Delirium, convulsions or less of consciousness Reye's Syndrome should be suspected in anyone who vomits repeatedly. Seek medical attention immediately. Two liver function tests (SGOT, SGPT) can be done to determine the possibility of Reye's Syndrome. There is a 90% chance of recovery when the syndrome is treated in its earliest stages by physicians and nurses experienced in the treatment of Reye's. Studies have shown that using aspirin or aspirin-containing medications to treat the symptoms of viral illnesses increases the chance of developing Reye's Syndrome. Antinausea medicines may mask the symptoms of Reye's Syndrome. The National Reye's Syndrome Foundation (NRSF), the U.S. Surgeon General, the Food and Drug Administration, and the Centers for Disease Control recommend that aspirin and combination products containing aspirin not be taken by anyone under 19 years of age during fever-causing illnesses. Aspirin is a part of the salicylate family of medicines. Another name for aspirin is acetylsalicylate; some drug labels may use the words acetylsalicylate, acetylsalicylic acid, salicylic acid or salicylate instead of the word aspirin. Currently, there is no conclusive data as to whether other forms of salicylates are associated with the development of Reye's Syndrome. Until further research has answered this question, the NRSF recommends that products containing any of these substances should not be taken during episodes of viral infections. Following is a sample listing of non-prescription and prescription preparations that Communicable Diseases 1 April 24, 2008
2 Communicable Diseases 3 April 24, 2008 should be avoided. Products may be reformulated from time to time to add or remove ingredients.
