This is why old medicines should be replaced by new ones.

Regular drug replacement with modern medications can have significant health benefits and avoid side effects that may interfere with treatment.
According to UK health specialist Tom Ghentry, taking the same medicine for a long time may not work, especially for chronic diseases, which are constantly developing drugs.

"Take cholesterol-lowering medications, such as atorvastatin, that are constantly updated, but thousands of patients take their earlier versions, which causes more side effects," Dr. Gintry said.

Professor Helen Stokes Lampard, President of the Royal College of General Practitioners in the United Kingdom, said people with chronic conditions should regularly consult their doctors to obtain new prescriptions for drugs that are appropriate for the development of their disease.

"Some of the old drugs have many side effects, so experts are developing new versions to alleviate their side effects," she said.

Lambert advises patients to consult their physician immediately after experiencing any unusual symptoms after taking the medication, and to receive a new prescription, in which the doctor will adjust the dose, select a newer version of the drug or replace it with another, reported the Daily Mail.
