Can I stop the medicine while taking it?

Male  27 years old 2018-06-03
Every time I take a medicine for a cold, as soon as I feel the symptoms are alleviated, I will stop the medicine. Is that okay?

    Some people cannot bear the side effects of the medicine, so they stop the medicine without telling the doctor. This is a wrong approach and it is likely to make the condition repeated or worse. Before stopping or reducing the dose, be sure to tell your doctor. Side effects are inevitable, but adjusting the dosage or adding some other drugs or can make the side effects weaken or disappear.
