PRESCRIPTION DRUGS MISUSE

Abstract

Prescription drug misuse is a growing global epidemic that has been a major public health concern due to the negative impacts on an individual's health. NSAIDs, or "Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs," are types of medications which they’re considered relatively safe, they can sometimes cause harm as a result of their misuse. Moreover, unlike the misuse of illegal and many other prescription drugs, which are subject to extensive research attention, inappropriate use of NSAIDs has been less well investigated.
