Some Simple Rules
For Taking Medicine
Ever wake up, or at least about half awake, in the middle of the night with a splitting headache? Or a pain in the tummy? And stumble into the bathroom and reach for a bottle in the medicine cabinet? And gulp down a pill or two, or a spoonful of medicine?
Sure. All of us have. And we are really risking serious trouble in taking medicine carelessly.
The medicine was prescribed by your physician, and he included careful and specific orders for size and frequency of dose and hoW to take it. The American Medical Association reports there is a good, sound reason for these orders, and they’re meant to be followed.
A few simple rules for taking medicine can help to avoid an accident that may make your minor discomfort a lot worse.
Never take medecine in the dark. You Should be certain you can see the bottle or pill box, to make certain it’s the right one.
_...Read the directions carefully before taking. Those directions are there because they are needed.
_Don’t increase the dose or take it more often than directed without checking with your doctor.
_If the label says “Shake before Using,” it means what it says. Shake it. _Dont take medicine prescribed for someone else. Just because it helped your husband’s cough does not mean it’s right for you. _Keep medicines out of reach of children. Some of the children’s medicines today taste good, and the kids may eat them like candy. The small child who is rushed to the hospital after eating a whole bottle of sugar-coated aspirin tablets is an all too common occurrence these days.
__Put the cap back on the bottle. Some medicines change strength if exposed to air too long.
_Keep the medicine in its original box. Shifting sleeping pills into an aspirin bottle, for instance, could produce dire effects for some one else in the family.
