How can enhanced elimination of toxins be achieved?
In some cases, enhancing the elimination of toxins from the body is necessary. Techniques such as urinary alkalinization, hemodialysis, or hemoperfusion can be employed. Urinary alkalinization involves administering intravenous bicarbonate to increase the pH of urine, promoting the excretion of certain toxins like salicylates. Hemodialysis is effective for removing toxins with low molecular weight and water solubility, such as methanol or ethylene glycol.
