Use this page as a starting point for your next coaching visit. The body is organised into what the medicine is for, the side effects to watch for, and the questions worth bringing to your pharmacist. If anything here disagrees with the label on your bottle or what your prescriber told you, the prescriber's instruction wins — and your pharmacist will help reconcile the rest.
