Self medication is the practice of selecting and using medicines to treat a self-diagnosed health condition or symptom. Although it sounds good and cheap to visit the chemist store after realizing a sharp ache inside your skull, you buy some drugs that you feel or have heard can cure the sharp ache, you come back home and flush the pills down your throat with some tumblers of water. It sounds good because you don’t have to visit the doctor or follow the doctor’s advice to run a medical test if it’s required.
Maybe after taking the pills, the headache or health issue may disappear and you feel alright, but atimes everything will not just fall back to normal as you think, it might be so initially but at the long run, your body will start suffering the ugly side of your actions.
All known drugs contains one or more chemicals which enables the drug to carry out its functions effectively. The chemicals might be the fundamental substance in the drug or just a secondary component that just helps in its preservation. But whatever it may be, when its traces accumulates to a certain amount in the body, they form toxins and starts to terrorize your health by posing dangerous threats to the functionality of the organs.
When a medication is taken without the prescription of a qualified doctor, it is absolutely dangerous and expensive because the medication you took might not be the exact one that would have taken care of your health condition. In some cases, instead of curing you permanently, some will alleviates the health condition for some time, while others will not be of any help and they will just remain dormant. Some others will either alleviate or remain dormant but will go the extra miles to bring about other health conditions. At the end, you will realize that you have spent more money than normal, purchasing the wrong drugs, causing more harm to yourself, and finally visiting a doctor.
Self medication is one of the things that gets doctors angry. Some individuals complicates issues for the Doctor by going along, taking care of themselves medically without the Doctor’s prescription and when things gets worse they will bundle themselves in a horrible state down to a Doctor, who will start diagnosing the patient without knowing the extent of damage done by the effect of self-medication.
Self medication is just bad for your health, you happiness, your finance and also bad for your Doctor. It is very impossible to dissuade people from engaging themselves in self medication, why? Because not everybody will buy the idea of going to the hospital when he/she starts suffering from a headache or other minor health symptoms. The best bet to sieve yourself out from self medication is to have your Doctor’s phone number at hand so that you can put him/her on call whenever you are down on any health condition. In that way, you Doctor will tell you what to do to alleviate yourself and if the need arises, your Doctor should be in the better position to bring down yourself to the hospital for checkup.
