Pharmacists are warning against the frequent use of painkillers. They advise that not all pains require medication.

Some pains can be managed without drugs, and self-medication can have risks. The liver and kidneys are particularly vulnerable to damage from excessive painkiller use.

Further information on the risks of painkiller use and the types of pain that do not require medication is available from pharmacists, who caution against self-medication and its potential consequences.
