Patients should only take medications as prescribed by their doctors and complete the full course. Many people use medications for headaches or gas relief at any time without following a proper pattern, which can have long-term effects. It’s important for the public to be aware of the proper use of medicines.

Patients should complete their full course of medicines especially antibiotics as advised by the doctor.
Taking medicines without prescription is harmful for patients. Without full knowledge about the medication will kill patient silently.

yes patients should take the medicine when doctor is prescribed and needs to be taken properly in time. many of the people now a days are choosing over the counter medications which is affecting many of the people to fall ill or it is making the health condition even worse. the main reason for the people addicting to over the counter medications because most of the people is thinking that when they go to the doctor for the small health issues then they will charge more and unnecessarily they will used to tell to x-ray or something else. so many of the middle class people are not ready for the budget also. this is also one of the strong reason. so the dosage is not prescribed when people use the over the counter medicines and this may be also leading to adverse effects.

Excess is harmful in everything.
You’re absolutely right @Abhishek_12. Medicines are important for treating illnesses but taking them in excess can be harmful. Overdoing it can lead to side effects and even worsen the situation. Always trust your healthcare provider’s advice and never self-medicate or exceed the recommended dose. Health should always come first!

“Dosis sola facit venenum”- Only the dose makes the poison.
Yes true,Medicine is very good when it takes in dose limits. If we take medicine in excess doses, it can cause very serious ADRs, so medicine should always be used only as prescribed by a doctor.
Medicines help us get better, but we should not take too much. Patients should only take medicine when they are sick and always follow the doctor’s instructions. Taking more medicine than the doctor says can cause bad effects on the body. So, it is important to take the right amount as prescribed by the doctor.
Exactly, medicines are good but not in excess. Medicines should be taken only under a doctor’s instruction. But now, we can see that most of the over the counter drugs like Dolo being used for anything and everything which will lead to other toxic effects in the long term run. Proper awareness and guidance to the public would help in such situations.
Patient should take medicine prescribed by their doctor. And should take proper medication and care and full course of medication. It is important to take medication prescribed by doctor if you take by yourself and all the allopathy medication has a disadvantages it must be careful with it .
But at some point if some one have normal symptoms like fever cold they take paracetamol and go to pharmacist ask them. But when the symptoms are not normal patients must be go to doctor and take proper medication prescribed by doctor.
Exactly — the right medicine in the right dose is a cure; in excess, it becomes a poison
@Yash1612 true
Yes true. Anything more than what is required is bad for the body. Medicines are powerful tools when used correctly, but they must be handled with care and responsibility. Taking them without proper guidance or exceeding the recommended dose can lead to serious side effects, long term health risks, or even dependency.
It’s concerning how normalized self medication has become.
