Abstract

Medicine has come a long way from the days of Hippocrates and Sushrutha. The advancement has been tremendous in recent years especially in the last few decades. Drugs when used without achieving any tangible goal may be called misuse of the drugs. On the one hand increased attention has been focused on the irrational drug use while, on the other hand lies the attitude of the hospital staff in prescribing drugs. Keeping this in mind doctors should practice rationality in prescribing drugs.
