In the past, I see a doctor when I was sick and followed the medication that was prescribed for me. But, I did not learn about the purpose of each medication.
Recently, I have paid more attention to the following:
* what does each medicine do?
* how do the medicine interact with each other?
I asked my doctor. I also write it down for my record. This allows me to identify the medication that is needed for a chronic problem (which comes with old age).
I encourage you to do the same (if you have not done so already).
You can check www.drugdigest.org for any side effects and so on.
