Remembering to Take Your Meds
If you have to take new medications every day and you just started to take them, place the bottle or container in a place where you will see it, be sure it will be out of reach of little ones. Make sure it's in a place you open or use every single day. You may need to do this for a few days to develope the habit of taking that medication. 5/19/2020
