4.9/5 (20932 ratings)

Description:A medical professional must write the prescription. But safe and effective use of any prescription drug is a partnership between the person who signs that slip of paper and you, the patient. In a larger sense, it is a collaboration among pharmaceutical companies, the medical profession, pharmacists, government agencies, and the patient. By and large, it has been a successful collaboration: Today's abundance of prescription medications offers longer and healthier lives to millions of people affected by diabetes, coronary heart disease, arthritis, cancer, and many other diseases. Many ailments that used to kill people are forgotten now, and many short-term illnesses are more of a nuisance than a serious problem, because medications can make them go away. But these benefits come with an important caveat: Used inappropriately, prescription medicines may not help very much and can even cause harm. Understanding how prescription medicines are created, tested, marketed, and dispensed is important in order to maximize their benefits and minimize their risks. This White Paper will help you to be a more informed consumer of prescription drugs. It cannot tell you which medications are best for you; your doctor and/or pharmacist will offer guidance in using your own prescription drugs safely, cost-effectively, and to your greatest benefit. What you learn from this document will help you to ask the right questions and have a better understanding of the answers.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
