In 2017 on the 15th of March, i lost a friend, a brother, a father and a lover not because he was seriously ill, but because of a medicine he misused. Two days before this sad event he complained of a headache, he went to a drug store and get himself a painkiller. He did not ask how to use the medicine, he decided to take it based on hs own knowledge and unfortunately for us we lost him.
So today in this post i have gathered some information on how to use medicine and the dangerous misuse of Medicine. Enjoy this article, thank me later.
Medicine is a substance that you drink or swallow in order to cure an illness. People in hospitals are dying because of shortage of medicine.
Some medicines are very useful and others are of no value. The useful medicines are sometimes used in the wrong way, which do more harm than good. To be helpful, medicine must be used correctly.
GUIDELINES FOR THE USE OF MEDICINE
Use medicines only when necessary.
Know the correct use and precautions for any medicine you use.
Be sure to use the right dose.
If the medicine does not help, or causes problems, stop using it and consult your Doctor.
When in doubt, seek the advice of a health worker.
Note: Some health workers and many doctors give medicine when none is needed, often because they think patients expect medicine and will not be satisfied unless they get some. Tell your doctor or health worker you only want medicine if it is definately needed. This will be save you money and be safer for your health.
