    I am a licensed pharmacy technician. It seems that everyone in the family brings their questions about medication to me. Now, they no longer need to do so. This book has a picture of the medication. With each medication this book explains what the medication does. It discusses what your doctor needs to know before prescribing the medication. It explains how you need to take the medication. It tells you what to do if you should miss a dose. And most importantly what may interact with the medication and possible side effects. And what you should look for while taking this drug. And lastly how and where to store the medication. NOTE: you should never keep your medication in the bathroom. Steam from the bath or shower will cause issues with your medication. Again, this book should be in everyone's home. Not just the homes of AARP members, but everyone.
