When you're sick,do you prefer medicines or nothing?

I would only take some medications when the sickness becomes really bad. If it is just a minor one, I would just let it go away by itself. Some people would straight away take some medication to relief even minor sickness and I do not think that it is good for the body.

I am not much of fan medicine, i would rather make some homemade receipt or a herbal tea. I just fell like we are putting so much chemicals to our bodies, so it is better to avoid them as much as we can. Like when i have headeache I won't take a pill but rather put some cream with mentol on my head. Or if I have sorethroat I would rather drink some tea and use some herbs like pilss from pharmacy.

I prefer medium dose but defintiely not heavy dose of medicines. I would like to be active rathr than lying on the bed.

Im like you I dont like taking medicine. But if Im really sick and I need an antibotic yes I will take it. Because sometimes the body cant fight off certain infections.

Hi fanji008.I never take any medicine maybe allergy pills.I try to stick it out myslef and let my bodies natural antibodies kick in and drink alot of water and eat alot of fruit,spicy foods and well,just keep on doing what i do eveyday and not let it get me down in the dumps.I try to sweat it out of me.

i am just as same as your friend. when i catch a cold, if it is not that severe, i will come through it without any medicine. because i think my immune system will kill those bacteria, if i could come through it, my body will become stronger. you know, sometimes it is the case. when we get a fever, the high temperture helps us killing bacteria, if we use medicine to control it, we to some extent give the bacteria a favor. of course, when the disease is severe, we'd better go to the hospital immediately.
