Speak Up About Your Medications
Medication safety is a team effort. You, your doctor, pharmacist, and other caregivers all have a role in making sure you get the right medication, take the correct dosage, and avoid bad reactions. It’s important to know what questions to ask about a new medication and to Speak Up if something doesn’t sound right.
Speak Up™ About Your Medications is designed to educate patients on:
- The importance of having, updating and appropriately sharing your medication list.
- Questions to ask your doctor and pharmacist about new medications.
- Tips for the safe use of medication both at home and in the hospital.
- Tips for safely storing and disposing of medications.
