It is sometimes important to take medicines for certain conditions. But it becomes risky if you take them without medical advice or in excessive quantities. This is known as medication misuse, which can lead to dependency. It is also dangerous to take medication together with other substances such as alcohol.
Many people abuse medicine, which is why it is important to know more about the risks and to use medicines responsibly. FISP events, podcasts and brochures in various languages tell you about these topics.
