It's #MedSafetyWeek

Some side effects can be prevented by taking medicines safely. Here are five questions you can ask your healthcare professional to help you make informed decisions and reduce your risk of side effects:

  1. What is this medicine for?
  2. When and how should I take it?
  3. How should I store it?
  4. Can it interact with my other medicines?
  5. What are the side effects?

If you do experience a side effect, talk to your healthcare professional and then report it to Medsafe and CARM.
