(QBĐT) - Ms. H. went to see a doctor and reported:
-I bought the medicine as prescribed by Dr. B., and it worked for the first few weeks, but recently I've been taking it as prescribed and it's not working anymore. They must have misdiagnosed my illness, right doctor?
- No! I checked and found that your illness was the same as Dr. B's, and the prescription was reasonable. According to the prescription, the patient must take the medicine for 1 month and then come back for a check-up. Have you taken it as directed?

- Ah..., I took it regularly for the first 2 weeks, I felt better so I stopped because taking too much medicine made me tired. In the past few days, I've had pain again so I took the medicine but it didn't work.
- Oh! You take medicine too haphazardly, it's right that it doesn't help! Many patients are like you, thinking that taking medicine to relieve the pain means they are cured, so they take it haphazardly when the pain subsides, and stop when the pain subsides. When the pain recurs many times, taking the medicine according to the old prescription is no longer effective because it has been interrupted and the patient is resistant to the medicine. You must persevere in taking the medicine according to the prescription to completely cure the disease!
Listening to the doctor's analysis, Mrs. H. suddenly thought: It's true that I've been taking medicine that way for a long time, so it's because of me, not because the prescription is wrong!
