This is a common scenario everyone faces when it comes to completing their dosage as prescribed by the doctor/pharmacist. Most of the time as they use the medicines, they begin to see wellness changes and as a result of that they assume they are totally well and see no reason to finish the prescription.

Today we are going to highlight the reasons why it is vital to finish your medicine prescriptions as recommended by the doctor/pharmacist.

  • Using up your medicines totally brings about total wellness, as most times the illness in the first stage of the use of the medicine will begin to faint out and in turn, we begin to feel better. If we stop the usage because we feel better, the illness will return more stronger and when you continue the use after a long time of not using it again the illness will have become resistance to the effectiveness of that medicine.
  • When you stop the usage of a medicine after a long time because you are well before you finish the dosage, such medicine can get contaminated as a result of wrong storage and if taken again later on it can cause more damage to the body.
  • When you finish your prescription, you won’t see any reason to give such medicines to someone else who is sick to use, that way the fellow can go directly to a doctor/pharmacist who will diagnose them properly and ascertain the right medicines for their illness. Except the exception of illness like headache and you should see the doctor after 3days and there seem to be do relief

Doctors will advise not to prescribe your own medication for another sick person, rather they should see a doctor.
