Maybe It's Your Medicationstackles these problems by providing information, insider tips, and strategies that empower patients and caregivers to have important conversations about their prescription and nonprescription drugs. This book addresses the questions consumers want to ask about their medications and brings to light other questions they should be asking but may not know how. It is everyone's go-to guide on how to use medications safely on the journey to healthy aging.
