I agree wholeheartedly. If a medication is prescribed, DO educate yourself about its proper use and be vigilant for side effects. Even if you aren't absent minded, keep a log book.

If you or a family member are hospitalized, DO be a pain in the butt when it comes to your medications. If something doesn't look right to you, question it. Drug errors happen at an alarming rate, causing thousands of serious injuries, and even deaths, every year.

Glad you're feeling better, Lynn.
