The major concern today with India’s relentlessly growing population is the unfortunate lifestyle diseases rigorously trying to keep up with the growth of the populace. If the direness of this situation wasn’t enough already, the complexity increases tenfold by the fact that these diseases are chronic in nature. The following statistics according to WHO Global Burden of Disease, 2010 makes evident the seriousness of the situation:
- Cardiac – 50 million patients
- Diabetes – 63 million patients
- Cancer – 1.2 million new cases every year
- Stroke – 0.9 million cases every year
- Renal – 175,000 transplants required
Not only are these ailments tough to live with but they can never be fully cured. They can only be controlled.
Medicines are the primary and the only mechanism that can help control chronic diseases and that is why patients need to follow a strict regime when it comes to medication intake. Due to the severity of these conditions, the number of medications a patient requires is always in the plurals.
Replenishing the medicine supply on a daily basis is time consuming and so is constantly visiting the pharmacy. A patient’s condition could worsen at any time, and sometimes it might be too late. A stocked-up supply is a must and this is where an online pharmacy comes to the rescue.
