MAN AND MEDICINE
Nose drops are related
to "speed"-type of drugs
By IRWIN J. POLK, M.D.

Nose drops can have serious
side effects.
Even those harmless-seem
ing watery-clear drops that
can be bought in the drugstore
without a prescription have
been known to cause trouble.
But some of the special nose
drops can cause serious dif
ficulties, especially in infants
and small children.
Nose drops, you see, are

medicine.
Most nose drops belong to
a group of drugs related to
the “speed” drugs used by
certain addicts. These
medicines have as their ef
fects increasing the heart-rate
and blood pressure, raising
the blood sugar, and causing
increased activity of the brain
and nervous system. It is for
this last effect that they are
used by addicts.
When dropped on the
mucous membranes of the
nose, these medicines, called
s ym p atho-mimetic-amines,
cause the blood vessels of the
tissues to close, decreasing
the blood supply to the mucous
membranes of the nose,
shrinking them.
It is for this effect that
nose drops are used to ease
breathing in case of “colds”
and other infections of the
nose.
But side effects occur here
as with all medicines.
Nose drops, for instance,
like other members of,,the
“speed” family, can cause
nervous excitement in > over
dosage.
In infants and small
children, however, this effect
is sometimes reversed. So
lethargy, sleepiness and even
coma can result in infants
and small children from the
use of these drugs which cause
the opposite effect in adults.
In fact, several types of
nose drops were withdrawn
from the drug market for use
in infants and children, and
others were provided with
special droppers to prevent
overdosage a few years ago
when it was reported that
many infants were put to sleep
for hours by having nose drops
applied.
In general, the available
nose drops do not have this
side effect of putting infants
to sleen.
There are other side effects.
Some drops can be addicting
in a particular fashion. Pa
tients get immediate, satisfac
tory relief from nasal stuf
finess from the use of nose
drops in many cases. So they
tend to use them over and
over again.
But the effect of the drops
is such that, as the effect
wears off, the condition of
the mucous membranes of the
nose returns to a swelling
even greater than at first.
This is called “rebound” by
doctors, who note that many
patients seem stuffier in the
nose as the drops wear off
than before using them.
Since they are stuffier and
less comfortable, the patients
tend to reuse the drops, larger
and larger doses in shorter
and shorter time. This is a
form of physiologic addiction
which is very difficult to
manage.
The problem is complicated
by the fact that most nose
drops are somewhat irritating
to the nose, particularly with
frequent use. So in addition
to the “rebound” problem, ir
ritation can result from the
use of the drops themselves.
This of course increases the
nasal stuffiness and makes the
feeling of urgency to reuse
the drops even greater,
strengthening the patient in
his addiction to the use of
nose drops.
So it is quite possible for
even the most well-intentioned
patient to develop a set of
habits around the use of nose
drops which becomes quite
difficult to break.
Another problem may
develop with the use of nose
drops, since some patients can
become sensitive to the in
gredients, and have more
rather than less nasal pro
blems as a result of using
them.

Student demands can
bring positive acts
-/ I
By DAVID NYDICK
Copley New* Service
Student unrest flourishes in
the nation’s high schools and
on college campuses. The new
school year will bring new
problems as many of the old
ones have been alleviated.
The goal for educators and
the administration should be
guidance so that unrest results
in constructive activities and
learning.
This era of apparent mob
action and revolutionary at
titudes calls for a new kind
of leadership.
In one high school represen
tatives of the student body
faced the superintendent with
a demand for membership on
the Board of Education. The
direct response was that
members had to meet certain
legal qualifications and were
elected, thus having a basic

responsibility to the elec
torate. As students, they did
not meet these requirements
and could not be members
of the Board of Education.
The representatives were
taken back by the straight
refusal.
However, there was then a
feeling of accomplishment
when the superintendent
recognized their desire and
need for communication.
There was an awareness of
the need for involvement on
both sides.
The board, on the recom
mendation of the superin
tendent, officially recognized
two student representatives to
attend board meetings, witn
full rights to speak and ex
press student views on ap
propriate topics. Regular
discussions with the
superintendent also were ar
ranged.
