Do you always follow religiously the medications prescribed by your doctor?

Do you really follow and finish the medications your doctor prescribed to you? Do you take it on time and complete or finish taking all of the medicines? Or are you like me sometimes that when I feel good enough already I would stop taking the medicines and not finish them? Sometimes also I don't take them as scheduled but only when I remember taking them?

not so much. i'm afraid of meds and if i can help it i won't take them. but if i have to and then i feel better, i stop and not continue with the dose i'm really bad at it.

that's what I do sometimes also but one doctor told me that I should consume the prescribed medicines in order to totally eliminate the virus otherwise if we stop abruptly, the medicines won't be that effective after all especially anti-biotics.

I have every confidence that my doctor knows what he is doing. This man deliered me, and he has been a doctor to three generations of my family. Wen he gives me a prescripion and explains to me what I should do with it, I do exatly what he says to do.
