Self-Medicine – More cruel than suicide

“Reach the goal with your team, but the man of the day will be you alone”

We think that medicine is good for our health and it can cure the disease! yes medicine can do the both, but the medicine should be preferred by doctors. Because the doctors only can identify the disease and prefer correct medicine for the disease, but “Self-Medicine” leads to death.

In this article, we are going to deeply see about the self-medicine, reason for taking self-medicine, harmful effects of self-medicine and etc. in Hash Info recommended by Vijayarajan T #selfmedicine, #medicine, #effectofselfmedicine, #harmful, #doctor.

In the modern society, people are affected by more known and unknown harmful and harmless disease. These diseases may be caused because of many reasons but all the diseases may change to critical because of madness of the people. Most of the people around us take self-medicines for the disease without preferring doctors. People doing such simple mistake leads them to face big trouble like death. Self-Medicine is nothing but people taking medicine by themselves without doctors advise and without having enough knowledge about disease.

Doctor’s advice to people is that people should not take any self-medicine forever, atleast can spend little amount and time to consult doctor for the clarification about the disease, fever, infections and etc. Mostly people do mistakes like instead of taking specific medicine they will intake common disease medicine like fever. One common symptoms in all disease is first heavy fever, cough, thought pain, feel tired and etc. so people take decision, that it is a normal fever so they take normal fever medicine paracetamol, while taking this medicine it give little immunity to WBC and fight against infectious agent but it won’t fight against disease causing virus. For example If a man is affected by dengue fever the symptom is like fever, feeling tired and etc. if he take paracetamol, it only balance the body heat, give immune power to WBC, attack little infectious agent but the virus which cause dengue won’t be destroyed by the medicine, so because of this with a normal temperature the virus get developed inside our body and exhaust it after critical situation but while consulting doctors they prefer Neem water, Papaya water are the best medicine to  dengue and they have immune power to attack against the dengue virus.

Another mistake done by people while taking self-medicine is, they won’t read the prescription or usage process in the medicine. For Example, before some years in Himachal Pradesh, A man who was suffering from irritation in his body for long time, he thought that this irritation, itchiness is happens because of some infectious agents, fungus and etc. so he thought to use Dettol for that itchiness and irritation because Dettol is an anti-septic but the drawback in this anti-septic is, that the Dettol Company produce the solution with Highly Concentrated, In this mistake is not with Dettol company 100% mistake is on people because before using this solution people won’t read the usage prescription and use it with their own idea but the Dettol Company provide usage prescription as Antiseptic : Prepare a 1:20 dilution using 20ml (approximately 1 capful) of Dettol Liquid in 400ml of water. Liberally cleanse the affected area with diluted Liquid until the area is wiped clean but that man didn't read this prescription and used directly for many times and latterly his skin has been ich and color of skin was changed like psoriasis. Not only this if you use directly Dettol in your naked skin will immediately burn and your skin get lot of impact. Same time if that man consults doctor for his itchiness definitely physician recommend some other valuable medicine or give complete usage detail of Dettol, because of his foolishness self-medicine now he lost his normal life.

The self-medicine not only give impact like above, it also give the dead, For Example, the thing really happens in one village that is one kid severely affect by chicken pox so the mother of that kid prefer doctor and provide Natural Medicine for the kid and after some days chicken pox is partially cured then after some days suddenly that kid get fever again so that mom gave Allopathic Medicine to the kid continuously for two days without preferring doctor because this the allopathic medicine react with natural medicine and  unfortunately that kid get died in the age of 2. The foolish self-medicine of mom to her child lost life of this kid.

Not only these two incidents many more incidents happen in this world because of taking self-medicine. The main reason people taking self-medicines are expense of treatment, waste of time when consulting doctor and many more etc.

The doctors gave awareness among people about self-medicine, same time that doctors also prefer us First-aid but because of fool peoples first-aid also now make sever incidents. Now a day’s people think that Self-Medicine as a First-aid, but first-aid is precaution take before the infection, incident, disease get critical. For example if a boy get accident and he got injury in his hand and blood is leaked so suddenly people around him are his-self take a first-aid like tight the wound with clean cloth to stop infectious agents get enter in the wound, or otherwise use some first-aid medicine with usage prescription and immediately went through doctor. If you won’t prefer doctor after taking first-aid it may get sever infection or some critical problems. 

The main wrong thing while taking self-medicine is people won’t have idea about the medicine what they going to intake. For Example, if you get cough and you take cough medicine it will make you to sleep, if you take it in driving time it will make you to tired up and let make sever accident.

The main reason why most of us recommending you to don’t take self-medicine and take medicine after prefer doctor is, we can know about the disease which is affected us, we will take correct medicine by the recommendation of doctor and etc. Same time prefer correct doctor having knowledge about the disease. For example, if you affected by stomach ache then you want to consult the diagnostic doctor you won’t consult the neurologist.

The benefits and demerits of Self-Medicine and Doctor preferred medicine is tabulated below:

Self-Medicine	Doctor Preferred Medicine
Consume Time	Time waste when doctor is busy
Less cost	High cost than self-medicine
Critical conditions can occur	Critical condition may be reduced/avoid
