Medical professionals must educate the public whenever possible.
More drugs are available than ever before.
Tell your physician when you take them, how often you take them and how much you take. After receiving a prescription from your medical professional, be sure you understand the drug, how and how often it is taken, in what amount, how it should help and possible side effects. This list should be carried with you at all times. Serious drug-drug interactions occur when two or more medications react with each other. There are also drug-food interactions which may occur when a medicine is taken with certain foods or beverages.
