                 What does a responsible attitude to health include?:

1. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle;

2. Monitoring your own health;

3. Responsible use of products for self-care of health, proper storage and use of medicines.

Today, people have much more opportunities to prevent the development of serious complications. And the first thing to start with is the correction of modifiable risk factors. These include control of blood pressure, cholesterol and blood sugar levels, abstinence from alcohol and smoking, and adherence to a healthy lifestyle. 

The most important rule is to consult a doctor for any complaints, whether it is seasonal acute respiratory viral infections or exacerbation of chronic diseases. But the responsibility lies precisely in the fact that the patient should take care of his health no less than the doctor, because this is primarily in his interests. Regularly undergo preventive medical examinations or medical examinations: they will allow you to identify diseases when there are no symptoms yet. Take care of yourself!
