This essay explores the ethical complexities of physician-assisted suicide (PAS). It begins by defining PAS and differentiating it from euthanasia, then delves into ethical theories to analyze whether PAS aligns with medical ethics. The essay discusses patient autonomy, the right to choose, and the impact of PAS on patients, physicians, family members, and society. It examines the ethical dilemma faced by physicians, the emotional and psychological effects on medical practitioners, and the potential for societal impacts. The essay considers religious perspectives, the scope of autonomy, and potential conflicts. It concludes that while patient autonomy is crucial, the potential adverse effects of PAS on others, including physicians and society, must be carefully considered. The essay argues that PAS should be permitted when it affects only the patient, emphasizing the need to balance individual rights with broader societal values and responsibilities.
