Remembering to take your medications at the right time and the right dosage can be hard for any of us. Taking medication becomes even easier to forget as we age.
The majority of older adults, especially those 65 and over, need to take multiple medications at various times in the day. Managing a number of different medications at demanding schedules and remembering, for example, which pill goes after meals and which one should be taken on an empty stomach can be quite challenging for seniors.
This can lead to missed doses and undermine the medicine’s effectiveness. In some cases, skipping medications and medication mistakes can be even hazardous to one’s overall health too – especially for those with conditions like diabetes or high blood pressure.
If you find yourself forgetting to take your medication or your medication routine is becoming complicated, we can help.
