Dr. Pooja Bhakuni addressing the people present in the program organized on attack on AMR in Homes 121 Society located in Sector-121. Awakening
Jagran correspondent, Noida. After the Corona period, patients considering themselves doctors by taking wrong and incomplete information about common diseases with the help of search engines are becoming burdened by their own negligence. The situation is such that taking antibiotics without consulting a doctor is weakening the body and increasing serious diseases, which can prove fatal in the future.
In the second phase of the awareness campaign on antibiotics being run by Dainik Jagran, we first reached Holmes 121 Society located in Sector-121. Here, Dr. Pooja Bhakuni, General Physician of Felix Hospital, gave tips for better health. Also tell the advantages and disadvantages to prevent misuse of antibiotics. In the awareness session, people of the society also corrected their apprehensions and incomplete knowledge by asking questions.
According to Dr. Pooja, it is most important to avoid taking antibiotics without consultation in common diseases. That said, antibiotics kill disease-causing bacteria in the body. If most people take medicines more than once or incompletely, resistance increases. If you fall ill, consult a doctor and get a blood test done and then take a regular course of medicines.
What do the people of Holmes 121 say
The awareness program on AMR is quite good. To maintain better health, it is necessary to have awareness programs like this at the grassroots level with senior doctors. The biggest thing is that people will have to reduce their dependence on internet media and various types of apps. -Chakradhar Mishra President, AOA

Dr. Pallav Mishra, Senior Consultant in the Internal Medicine Department of Yatharth Hospital, Sector 110, said that in case of typhoid, fever, cold or other common diseases, most of the people take medicines from chemists. The patient is also not aware of the antibiotic medicine or is not able to get complete information about it due to the quick relief. This carelessness increases the bacteria of disease in our body.
When bacteria become stronger and develop resistance, antibiotics become ineffective after a few days. He cautioned the elderly and other people that in case of illness, they should first consult a doctor. Then, on the advice of the doctor, get a blood test done and start treatment based on the report.
Get information about medicines from the doctor. Know why it is important to take antibiotics. In the session for about one and a half hour in the society, he made everyone aware by answering the questions of the elderly and other staff. During this, the people of the society expressed their gratitude to Dainik Jagran and the senior doctor.
Dainik Jagran's "Attaak on AMR - Antibiotics: Negligence will not do" awareness campaign has been a clear message that negligence on antibiotics will not do. We all should not take any medicine without consultation and incomplete information. -Manu Nagpal
Many times, I used to take the medicines after knowing the names related to the disease, but today I am surprised to hear the doctor's words. Now I understand how dangerous it is for health to take any medicine without consultation. -Ashok Malhotra
Dainik Jagran's awareness program on public health is quite commendable. Dr. Pallav Mishra has alerted everyone by pointing out the carelessness being taken in taking medicines quite simply. This awareness program was informative for the elderly. - RK Aggarwal
Awareness programs should be organized at the society level. After Corona, most of the people get information about medicines from online websites or apps and start taking them during their illness, which is dangerous for health. -BS Bharatwal
