Become Better Educated About


Medications for Seniors It's common sense that you should be educated about any drugs you use


But how knowledgeableisthe average person when it comes to interactions, side effects or recommended dosages--factors that are even further complicated by age?


Too often manufacturers, pharmacists, and caregivers are either unaware of these factors, or don't explain them properly


With decades of pharmacological experience, Eli and Seymour Ehrenpreis give full answers to the most common and important questions consumers ask about new drugs, such as


In what form is the drug available?


What are the recommended doses for seniors?


What should I do if I miss a dose?


What drug reactions or symptoms should I report to the doctor?


Should my dentist or surgeon be informed that I am taking this drug?


What is the risk factor of this drug for seniors?


Should I drive? Is the drug habit forming?


Is alcohol permitted?


For both seniors looking to have better control over their medications, as well as for professional caretakers, this book is an invaluable resource
