There are no drugs that can directly stop radiation. Radiation is a form of energy, and drugs work by interacting with molecules in the body.
However, certain medications can help manage the effects of radiation exposure, such as:
- Antibiotics: To prevent infections that can arise from weakened immune systems due to radiation exposure.
- Anti-nausea medications: To manage nausea and vomiting, common side effects of radiation therapy.
- Bone marrow stimulants: To help the body produce blood cells that may be damaged by radiation.
- Anti-inflammatory medications: To reduce inflammation caused by radiation exposure.
It's important to note that these drugs do not stop radiation but rather help manage the symptoms and complications that can occur after exposure.
