Pancreatitis aguda - Prevention

Prevención:

Usted puede reducir el riesgo de episodios nuevos o repetitivos de pancreatitis tomando medidas para prevenir las afecciones médicas que puedan llevar a la enfermedad:

  • Evite el uso de ácido acetilsalicílico al tratar una fiebre en los niños, especialmente si pueden tener una enfermedad viral, con el fin de reducir el riesgo de síndrome de Reye.
  • No consuma alcohol en exceso.
  • Asegúrese de que los niños reciban las vacunas que los protejan contra las paperas y otras enfermedades de la infancia (ver información general sobre vacunas).
