We all have once in a while either taken or been given a medicine that is not prescribed by the doctor! Whether it is for immediate relief or based on past experiences we think of self-medication as a harmless exercise. However, self-medication comes with a lot of risks and one must be aware of the same.

- Incorrect dosages
- Long-term drug resistance
- Adverse drug reactions

Are just some of the common, possible risks associated with self-medication.

Thus, even if you have the knowledge and even if symptoms appear to someone else who’s using a particular medication – it is always best to avoid taking medicines of our own accord.

Do consult a medical practitioner and only take medicines as prescribed, suggests Dr Mohammad Shameem, Clinical Pharmacist, at Continental Hospitals.
