Online health information can help you prepare questions, but it cannot replace an assessment by a qualified healthcare professional. Look for the active ingredient, intended use, warnings, interactions and the date the information was reviewed.

Prepare three questions

  • What is this medicine intended to treat?
  • What should I do if I miss a dose or notice a side effect?
  • Which medicines, foods or supplements should I avoid?

Take the product packaging and your medication list to an appointment when you need advice.
