THE HIDDEN DANGERS OF SELF-MEDICATION
In our fast-paced world, it's easy to think that a quick pill can solve your health problems. Many of us have taken medicine without a doctor's advice, whether it's a painkiller for a headache or antibiotics for a cold. But this shortcut can be dangerous.
Self-medication might seem convenient, but it carries risks:
- Wrong Treatment: Without a proper diagnosis, you might treat the wrong problem.
- Side Effects: Every drug can have harmful side effects if not taken correctly.
- Overdose: Taking too much can seriously damage your body.
- Addiction: Some drugs, especially painkillers and stimulants, can lead to dependency.
Remember: Your health is too important to risk. Always consult a doctor before taking any medication.
Choose safety, choose proper care.
