You offer some very good, common sense advice. I’m caring for my mother and I’ve found that my local pharmacist’s help has been invaluable. For example, she is the one that encouraged me to touch base with mom’s doctors as her prescriptions change. Frankly, I never would have thought of this and I hope that it will prevent future complications.
