Medications: mistakes to avoid

farmaci

Some would never want to take them; others would want a pill to cure every ailment and would not leave home without an emergency kit in their bag. In few areas as in the use of drugs are people’s attitudes so diverse as to contemplate all the nuances between opposites. What they all, or at least the majority, have in common is the possibility of making errors in intake, either under or over, due to forgetfulness, inaccurate understanding of the directions given by the doctor or listed on the package inserts, prejudices or false beliefs that lead to “revising” dosages and duration of therapies in an imaginative way, with the sole result of reducing the efficacy and safety of the medications taken. A few usage cautions to take the best care of yourself .
