WHY ARE MALARIA PILLS PRESCRIPTION DRUGS

Tried purchasing malaria pills from a pharmacy, nimeambiwa nikuje na prescription.

I thought such pills should be OTC considering malaria’s prevelance in kenya

-Self-diagnosis or misdiagnosis can result in fatal consequences for malaria
-Some kids can abuse them to procure abortion

Malariaquin without a test. Buda, you can easily die of meningitis or pneumonia. Many have, the same way.

Not sure I have understood your answer.

Meningitis and pneumonia inaingilia wapi

Sometimes you (layman)can confuse the symptoms. So you jitibu with malariaquin kumbe you have meningitis/or pneumonia. By the time you are heading to hosi, uko mahututi. People have died like this. Sana sana pneumonia. If you have to take a prescription med, let a doctor check you.

Hii akili ndio unatumia kuwasha meko Kwa bedsitte yako?

Haha. Enda mix ngoma, angalau ununulie bibi suruali

Hapo ametudanganya… people will mostly treat themselves empirically if they experience mild symptoms like flu and low grade fever…when symptoms persist,they seek definitive care…nani anaeza kuwa na meningitis aendee OTC drugs?signs zenyewe zitakufanya ukimbie hospital haraka sana… stiff neck, photophobia, convulsions…
