The rational use of dietary supplements and nutraceuticals (DS/N) is based on objective evaluation of the clinical evidence as well as subjective evaluation of the risks, benefits, economic costs, and potential drug interactions. Since the use of DS/N has skyrocketed, physicians must learn about them in order to better communicate with and care for their patients. There are many evidence-based and rational uses for DS/N, but profiteering and quackery must be avoided at all costs.
膳食补充剂和营养保健品(DS/N)的合理使用基于对临床证据的客观评估以及对风险、益处、经济成本和潜在药物相互作用的主观评估。由于DS/N的使用量急剧上升,医生必须了解它们,以便更好地与患者沟通并为其提供护理。DS/N有许多基于证据的合理用途,但必须不惜一切代价避免暴利和江湖骗术。
