Thread: Does doctors become careless or they become gold diggers?

Hello Friends,

This Incident happened to me 4 years back. When I went to a VP doctor for my migraine headache problem.he gave me a medicine name Verapamil. I took that medicine for six months but my headache didn't reduce.So I consult another doctor then only i came to know that the Verapamil medicine is usually given to heart patients to control their high pressure.Then the doctor also suggest me to reduce the intake of the medicine day by day and finally stop taking it after two months.After this incident I will check every medicine usage on internet before I or my family members intake the medicines.


Does doctors become careless or they want to make patients more unhealthy to make money?

I too have faced such situations but I'm not clear about their intention.
It may be because of the lack of their knowledge about that particular medicine or they may be trying to get more income by making us their patients for ever.
