As the patient leaves the office, he turns to you and asks what you would do and how he should respond to this matter. He states that he has been told that the medication may prolong his life, but his quality of life may suffer. How do you respond to the patient?

Answer:

Here it is the answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Judging from an individual perspective, when a medication is taken, it actually should be geared towarda improving the quality of health or living. However, with a medication which works to improve on life span but a reduced quality of living, then it means the patient will likely suffer for the best part of this prolonged period due to this medication
