A medication (also referred to as medicine, pharmaceutical drug, or simply drug) is a drug used to diagnose, cure, treat, or prevent disease.
The world health organization (WHO) has seriously warned against self medication E.g Those who can easily say ' its like I have malaria'' and they will end-up buying malaria drugs. And most times, people gets fake drugs for consumption mostly in west African Countries. But what did WHO do about this?
In 2001, they called and had a meeting with office for European World Telecommunications (O.E.W.T.C) in the meeting they provided a destination phone number where you can forward your health conditions to.
Procedures:
Simply text your health condition to "38120" E.g "I have headache", "I have malaria" to distant time you will receive two message from H.W.O. The first message you will get will look like this "Please hold on for reply" while the second message will contain names of drugs you are to take for such illness.
