This might cause side effects, especially when you have any allergies or other serious diseases.


What do you think, is it OK to intake such medicines without a doctor's consultation? If not, what would be the side effects?
Nope! definitely no! Whatever tablet it might be it's not advisable to take them without prescription. Too much of anything is good for nothing, be it a tablet or poison.
In fact, most of us do this including me because it feels kinda waste to go to the doctor for simple garden-variety cold and fever. Bad habit but unavoidable.
