This is health literacy month. So what do you know about medication safety?
I knew that my medicine cupboard had been neglected when I found a jar of Vicks Rub from when I was a kid. Yes, that was a long time ago and yes, it was about time that it was thrown out.
Medication safety isn't just about an expiry date.
It's about safe storage, knowing what medications may interact with other medications, food, and supplements.
And it's about telling your doctor but any side effects that you may have had from previous prescriptions.
Take One Action Today To Build Your #Resiliency!
So Here Are My Tips For Building Resiliency And Celebrating Health Literacy Month:
Check your prescriptions periodically for expiration dates.
If you're traveling through several time zones consult with your doctor or pharmacist to work out a plan for adjusting the timing of your medication. This will prevent you from taking too much or too little.
Remember the term natural does not necessarily mean safe. Treat all supplements and herbal remedies with the same respect as you would any prescribed medications.
