Why keep a medication list?
A medication list is a written record of every medicine you take, how much, and when. Health agencies recommend keeping one up to date and bringing it to every appointment.
What to write on your medication list
Include prescription medicines, over-the-counter medicines, vitamins and supplements. Update it every time something changes.
