Creating Routines to Help You Take Your Medication

If medicine is part of the treatment plan you and your provider agreed on, taking medicine as prescribed is important. Most people forget or miss a dose of medication every now and then. Sometimes you may not understand the directions, and sometimes you may just forget. It is important to talk with your provider if you have any questions or concerns about taking your medicine regularly. You and your care team can discuss ways to help you stick to your medication routine.
