In a candid conversation, Dr. van Tulleken revealed that a staggering 80 percent of people in the UK do not take their medication as prescribed. This includes medical professionals, with Dr. van Tulleken admitting that even he has fallen victim to this. His warning goes beyond just medication errors—it extends to how specific foods can interfere with treatments, as reported by the Mirror.
