HAZARDS OF SELF MEDICATION:

Everyone wishes to spend a happy life.Happiness is mainly  related with health. Health is a god blessing. For its maintenance one must be careful about the life style the way and the manner a persons lives.

A non healthy persons is suffering from a diseases are of several kinds. Some diseases are due to malnutrition some are due to over eating some are heredity in nature and many diseases are due to bacterial and fungal attack.

So for proper treatment one must have enough knowledge about various kinds of diseases and then which medicine is effective in curing that particular diseases.
