This is related to this thread and important. As soon as possible, make a list of your medications and the amount prescribed on each.

I had two mix-ups because the hospital pharmacist called two of my physicians and the office staff gave her incorrect or outdated information or partially lacking information, such as half a tablet.

Put the list in something that is with you at all times.

I was able to tell them the proper names of my medication but unable to tell them the dosage.
