ERNA'S GROUP:
WAYS TO PREVENT DRUGS OVERDOSE.
The National Center for Health Statistics reports that in 2005 more
than 22000 lives were lost due to overdoses and the number is growing rapidly.(the
hook) Most of people do not know on how to
consume medicine properly. They take medicine without any awareness of the bad
consequences if they over consume them.(transition) Some
ways to prevent from over taking drugs are to take medication as prescribed,
make sure the medicines come from familiar source and do not mix different
types of medicines. (thesis statement)
One of the ways to
prevent drugs overdose is to take medicine as instructed on the label or as prescribed
by your doctor. (topic sentence) As a person that is expert in medical fields, a doctor knows exactly the
quantity that a person should takes for each type of medicines. If you consume
medicines without following the instructions, you may have taken the medicines
more than what you should have and that will give bad impacts to your body.
Example, if your body could not endure the amount of the medicine that you
consumed, it will make you sleepy, hallucinate or at worst, it can also lead to
death. (supporting sentence)Thus, people should learn on how to take medication following the
instruction that is given to avoid any undesirable event to happen.(conclude
sentence)
Besides that, buying medicine from reliable source can help you to
refrains from overdoses.(topic sentence) You have
to make sure that you buy drugs from places that owned a medication selling
license. When you buy drugs at the pharmacy that owned a license from Ministry
of Health, we can be sure that the medicines they sell are safe to consume.
Example, if you are sick and you don’t have any time to go to the hospital, you
will mostly choose to buy medicines from pharmacy and if the medicines that
they sell are not approved or illegal, it might not cure your sickness.(supporting
sentence) Hence, people should identify which pharmacy sells
medicine that is approved by the Ministry of Health. (conclude sentence)
Last but not least, separate different types of medicines in a
different places or container can help to avert from overdoses.(topic sentence) If you mix various kinds of medicines, you might consume
the wrong one. You will be confused which is which. Example, you can also put a
label on each medicines to make it easier to identify them. In addition, if you
keep on mixing medicines and piling them together, you won’t be able to
distinguish which medicines might have past the due date. In this case, taking
medicines that have expired might give a bad effect to your body.(supporting
sentence) Therefore, we should practice to keep our medicines properly
to avert from over consuming them. (conclude sentence)
In
a nutshell, drugs overdose can be avoided if we take precautions. Many lives
can be safe if they know the correct ways to prevent them. Government
should play an important role to give awareness to society about it.(suggestion) Like
a saying goes “prevention is better than cure”.(quotes) If we ignore and
keep on doing the same things we might lose someone that we love or we could
lose ourselves too.
