Please email me back if you have something you'd like announced and raffled off at the event.

Please Read the Labels of your Over-The-Counter  Medications!!!

 

Here's why it is important: Taking too much can make you feel worse.  An OTC drug could aggravate another problem you have or the OTC medication could affect a prescription med that you are taking.

 

Your Ultimate Protection Tool Kit:Two things can fend off OTC errors: a permanent marker and

an attentive pharmacist.

 

Use them like this:

Sharpie the dosing info on the bottle, cap or box of the OTC. 

 

Mark down other warnings that pertain to you and talk to your local Pharmacist!
