Managing your Meds Do you?

Do you manage your meds.Do you throw out when they are expired or hang on to them.Toss out the old meds Lot of us hate to toss them out.It costs us a lot of money. Also mix up can cause severe problems. Mostly the elders as they do hang on to the old med. They mix it up and cause severe illness. Not just the old but the young also. many patients do not speak up,why they are taking the med. We go to the pharmacy and get our prescription and never ask why am I taking this.Yes,they do explain it to you.But do you remember? People hate to read the many papers about the drug that you use. Most of us do not understand.So why do you not ask? We have so many mix up in this situation. Do you toss out the old med?Do you know the reason your taking this. Do you forget and not sure.Get help if you do.Ask your VNA nurse they will get you organized. The photo is mine
