Medication Misuse Effects

Medication Misuse Effects explores the significant public health problem of improper medication use and its wide-ranging consequences. It examines how seemingly harmless medications can lead to adverse health outcomes, such as organ damage and cognitive impairment, and contribute to increased healthcare expenditure. A key insight is the substantial economic impact on families and society due to lost productivity and strain on social welfare, highlighting that medication misuse affects individuals across all socioeconomic backgrounds.

The book adopts a fact-based approach, beginning by defining medication misuse and its various forms, before progressing to explore adverse health outcomes and societal costs in detail. It synthesizes findings from clinical studies, epidemiological data, and economic analyses to provide a comprehensive overview.

Ultimately, the book emphasizes the need for improved patient education, enhanced prescribing practices, and stronger regulatory oversight to promote medication safety and reduce the burdens associated with medication misuse.
