We all know the saying: change your smoke alarm batteries when you change your clocks. But what if we applied that same mindset to our medication lists?
Every time you refill your pill organizer, take a few extra minutes to update your medication list. Has anything changed? New prescriptions? Dosage adjustments? Medications you no longer take? Keeping an up-to-date list ensures you have the right information for doctor visits, emergencies, and even unexpected pharmacy questions.
Just like a working smoke alarm can save lives, an accurate medication list can prevent dangerous interactions, avoid duplicate prescriptions, and ensure better care. So next time you organize your meds, make it a habit—update your list, protect your health.
