I have not been to other countries but self medication is something that is very common here in my country. Also, there are times when I give myself a medication as a means of first aid before I go to the hospital if the symptoms persist.

I know I’m guilty of this but how about you? Do you engage in self medication?

I do this option if it is necessary. There are some instances that we can recuperate with the aid of these medicines.
You’re right and the thing is that we cannot always go to the hospital. It is more expensive but it is important to go to the hospital when needed

No, I don't engage in self-medication. I believe in seeking professional medical advice and treatment when necessary.
It is good to know that you do not engage yourself medication, but a lot of people feel that going to the doctor is quite expensive so they try self medication first

Yes, especially for common cold. When I start feeling the flu like symptoms, I buy over the counter drugs like cetrizine, paracetamol and piriton. I am so guilty of self medication.

I mostly take natural things like boiling pawpaw leafs that I know are very good against Malaria and so on. I don't take drugs for self medication.

For some minor illnesses like cough, flu, cold, and others, I don't need to go to the doctor to treat them. I usually buy medicine at the pharmacy and treat myself.
