Kartik Posts Message On The Dangers Of Self-Medication

The message read, "Dear All, It is my sincerest request to all those who are Covid Positive/Covid Negative & discharged/ families of those in the hospital or anyone who has access to information in hospitals regarding what's going on... PLEASE do not share information regarding medication on social media or in interview. Please use your platform and words carefully."

It continued, "For those who are listening to heads of state of different countries and celebrities speaking about specific medications, please understand that the ONLY person you should follow is your doctor. Please DO NOT self medicate under any circumstance. There has been loss of life due to this. I was in the hospital, I know that doctors do not use a one size fits all approach to treat us. When given any medication, we are very closely monitored, for any adverse side effects. Medication should be taken under the guidance and supervision of doctors."

"I cannot stress this enough: If you are feeling any symptoms, please stay calm and visit an authorized hospital to get help," it concluded.
