Before starting any new medicine, it’s important to understand how to use it safely. Here are five key questions to ask your pharmacist:
- What is this medicine for? Understand its purpose and how it treats your condition.
- How and when should I take it? Some medicines need food, others don’t—timing matters.
- Are there side effects? Knowing common reactions can prepare you and avoid panic.
- Can this interact with my other medications? This prevents harmful drug combinations.
- What happens if I miss a dose? Proper handling ensures consistent treatment.
