Brief Answer: It is not advisable to do so. Detailed Answer: Hi, Thanks for consulting HealthcareMagic! It is not advisable to do so without doing a complete physical examination. Lot of other factors like dependency etc need to be considered. Today’s research indicates that a move toward individualizing the dosing of prescription agents is warranted and it can happen only after physical consultation. Wish you good health!
