Self-medication has evolved rapidly over the years to provide symptomatic relief for minor ailments. One can safely define responsible self-medication, as the informed and rationale choice of consumers, to treat themselves and their family members with appropriate, affordable drugs of acceptable quality. Responsible self-medication can help prevent and treat symptoms and ailments that do no require medical consultation. Moreover, it also reduces the increasing pressure of medical services for the relief of minor ailment, especially when financial and human resources are limited. Worldwide, more and more governments are accepting the self-medication concept. Self-medication is a fact of life. With its broad use and social acceptance, no health policy should ignore self-medication. Rather, health policy should ask how this momentum can be leveraged to help achieve its objective.
Only knowledgeable consumers should be encouraged to practice self-medication.
