In countries like India, people take antibiotics for every disease without taking prescription from any doctor. Also most doctors are giving antibiotics for common diseases, and this makes some viruses resistant to antibiotics and this will create problems after certain age. In our country the situation is becoming critical.
Antibiotics can be life -savers.But misuse has increased the number of Drug resistant germs. inspire of a growing awareness antibiotic resistance in recent years over use still occurs.People who want a quick relief from symptoms regardless of the cause of illness may force Doctors for antibiotic prescriptions
If people willingly take them inspite of warning they are bound to suffer and only themselves to be blamed. Awareness can be created but misuse is a personal decision.
In our country many people take antibiotics without any prescription, specially in villages and small towns. In village and distant areas, where hospitals are far away, usually people take antibiotics for small diseases, what they think previously doctor has prescribed him this medicine for similar disease and they take medicine without consulting any doctor. If their disease is cured then its OK, if conditions become more complicated then only they go to doctor. So there is a need to make people aware of taking antibiotics.
People also take self prescribed antibiotics and other medicine because they don't want to go to doctors for every small reasons. They don't think much about the future effects
Exactly.I know such people. They think by consuming self prescribed medicines and avoiding going to the Doctor, they are saving money. But it is nothing but self immolation.
I think one should use home made treatments instead of taking antibiotics for small diseases. There are many items present in our kitchen which can used as medicine, as and when required.
Yes.There are several useful items such as Cinnamon, Dhaniya in every house.. They can be used for treating several-small ailments without going to a Medical practitioner.

And these items will not cause any side effects. Today there is need to focus more on ayurvedic medicines because these have no or less side effects as compared to English medicines.
