2. Befriend a doctor. I actually manage to save time and expense keeping abreast with my children’s pediatrician. I sometimes text my doctor whenever I get some confusing symptoms and immediate advice is needed. But I only do this when necessary…
3. Keep a reliable health book on your bedside. I have a reliable health which usually comes in handy when confused with several symptoms. I like checking my health books before calling the doctor.
4. If you are okay with generic medicines, then you are actually saving more just taking them, however, there are a vast of fake drugs lurking everywhere, so if you want to go generic, buy them from reliable drug stores.
