Here are three important things to tell your doctor or pharmacist about your medication at every appointment! Let them know if you:
1. Admitted to the hospital recently or seen other doctors
This will help them know if there are any changes to your medication made by other doctors.
2. Feel unwell or experience anything unusual with your medication
You may be having a side-effect to your medication. Let them know about your condition, so that they can better advise you about your medication.
3. Often forget or have difficulties following instructions on how to take your medication
Your doctor or pharmacist can advise you further on what to do with your medication.
