Whether it's ongoing medications for diabetes, hypertension, or mental health, or treatment for acute problems, the right prescription plan is key to effective care. Poorly managed prescriptions can lead to side effects, interactions, or reduced effectiveness.

Medication Adherence Missing doses or not following prescribed instructions can reduce the effectiveness of your treatment.
Side Effects Some medications may cause mild to severe side effects, impacting your daily life.
Drug Interactions Taking multiple medications increases the risk of interactions, which can affect how they work or cause adverse reactions.
Chronic Condition Management Long-term prescriptions require careful monitoring to ensure they remain effective and safe.
Dosage Adjustments Over time, your medication needs may change, requiring adjustments to avoid over- or under-treatment.
Cost and Accessibility Medication costs and access can sometimes pose barriers to adherence and consistent treatment.
