How to Use My Medication List

• Complete all the information on the form.  List Everything that you take.  This includes prescription medicines, over-the-counter medicines, herbal medicines and vitamins even if you take them only occasionally.
  
  
• Keep the information on the list Up-To-Date.   Anytime your medications change, update the list.  If you need help, ask your doctor, nurse, pharmacist or family member to help you.
  
  
• Carry your medication list with you.  Place it in your wallet or purse with other identification cards such as your license or insurance card.
  
  
• Take this list to all healthcare visits.  Take it when you go to the doctor for a visit or for a medical test.  Take it to the hospital, to the pharmacy or any location where you will receive healthcare services.

Medication Safety Tips

• Be informed; learn the name of your medication, why you are taking it, how to take it, when and how long to take it and what possible side effects it may have. 
  
  
• Take your medicine as prescribed and do not stop taking it without asking your doctor.
  
  
• Discuss your current medications with your pharmacist or doctor before taking any new medications (including over-the-counter medicine, vitamins and herbal supplements).
  
  
• Use one pharmacy for all your medications.
