Special Considerations
If you are taking medications, follow these general guidelines:
• Take the medication as directed. Do not change the amount or the schedule.
• Ask what side effects could occur. Report them to your doctor.
• Talk to your doctor before you stop taking any prescription medication.
• Plan ahead for refills if you need them.
• Do not share your prescription medication with anyone.
• Medications can be dangerous when mixed. Talk to your doctor if you are taking more than one medication, including over-the-counter products and supplements.
