| Medicine help human in many ways..People take medicines to fight illness, to feel better when they're sick, and to keep from getting sick in the first place. When a doctor is deciding which medicine to give a patient, he or she thinks about what is causing the patient's problem. Someone may need to take more than one type of medicine at the same time — one to fight off an infection and one to help the person feel better. For example doctor prescribes antibiotics to fight against germs or bacteria especially for kids. But while taking antibiotics your body feels hot, so the parents are advised to give some pain reliever which will help them to feel better while getting well. Many people also take medicines to control illnesses that don't completely go away, such as diabetes, asthma, or high blood pressure. With help from these medicines, people can enjoy life and avoid some of the worst symptoms associated with their illnesses. Finally, there are important medicines that keep people from getting sick in the first place. Some of these are called immunizations, and they are usually given as a shot. They prevent people from catching serious illnesses like measles and mumps. There is even an immunization that prevents chickenpox, and many people get a flu shot each winter to avoid the flu. Although shots are never fun, they are a very important part of staying healthy. |
