What are the hazards of clenbuterol?
After eating pork, I felt palpitations and trembling hands, and my muscles kept twitching. I heard from others that it might be due to consuming meat containing clenbuterol. Exactly what are the health risks associated with clenbuterol?
Doctor's answer (1)
Consuming excessive amounts of clenbuterol or food containing clenbuterol may lead to poisoning. If symptoms of discomfort occur, it is recommended to seek medical attention at a hospital promptly and follow the doctor's instructions for treatment.
Mild poisoning may cause symptoms such as palpitations, hand tremors, and eyelid muscle twitching. As the condition worsens, symptoms such as headache, dizziness, nausea, and vomiting may appear. Moderate to severe poisoning requires timely medical attention for treatments such as induced vomiting, gastric lavage, and catharsis.
After ingesting clenbuterol, gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, and diarrhea may occur. Clenbuterol can cause symptoms including palpitations, tachycardia, and elevated blood pressure. In severe cases, it can lead to arrhythmias and even myocardial infarction. For patients with pre-existing conditions such as hypertension and heart disease, consuming food containing clenbuterol may exacerbate their existing illnesses and potentially endanger their lives.
Consumers should purchase meat from reputable vendors and avoid consuming meat products of unknown origin. In daily diet, it is recommended to maintain a balanced dietary structure and diversify food intake to help maintain good health.
