The Importance of Taking Medicines Safely
Marietta, Georgia (PR) August 12, 2008 – CNN recently posted a reported on their web site about the importance of making sure that your health care provider knows all of the medicines and supplements you are using.
Did you know that you should keep a record of all your medicines (prescription, nonprescription, natural remedies, and vitamins)? Do you know why you take the medication you take, in what form you take it (pill, liquid, shot…), the color and shape, the dosage, any special instructions regarding the medication given to you by the subscribing physician and what time a day (am, pm) you take it? Don’t forget the medications you put in your eyes or ears or even on your skin. Even if the medication is “as needed” or “on occasion” your physicians need to have a complete picture of your health care.
This information is very important when your provider prescribes a new medicine or in an emergency. You may end up taking too many medicines. While some medicines change the way other medicines work.
