Autores ResumoMedicines are taken for illness; so it comes as a surprise to discover that, in Britain at any rate, the majority of drugs are bought by healthy people. The biggest users are women over 50 who are in the upper socioeconomic groups, so on all these counts I am typical of the UK drug user. What these figures really tell us, though, is that taking pills and medicines is part of our normal way of life, and not just something we resort to in extreme emergency.
