Medication errors are a leading cause of injury among patients throughout the United States. These errors can result in substantial emotional, physical, and financial harm. While choosing trustworthy and knowledgeable health care providers is an important step in preventing these injuries, there are additional measures that patients can take to proactively reduce the risk of a Kentucky medication error. One such measure is to ask questions about the medication. Specifically, ask your doctor or pharmacist the following:

 

  1. Why should I be taking this medication?
  2. What common problems should I watch for while taking this medication?
  3. What should I do if problems arise while taking a medication?
  4. When should I stop taking this medication?
  5. Can this medication be taken even though I am taking other medicines at the same time?
