Ruzan Khambatta: Prescription Errors Education & Awareness Week According to a Harvard study, over 107,000 Americans are incorrectly taking their prescription medication, resulting in hospitalization or even death. Patients and consumers need to ensure that they are well educated and aware of the interactions of the drugs they are taking, effects that drugs have on the body, and the potential dangers of mixing prescription drugs with other over the counter medications and supplements. Pharmacists have even provided drugs accidentally to patients prescribed similar medication, as the labeling was misleading or not properly marked. As the availability of medication, both prescribed, and over the counter, continues to expand, you need to be sure you know exactly what you’re taking, and what effect it will have on you. #RuzanKhambatta #Day #specialcelebration #PoliceHEART1091 #PoliceHEART #Entrepreneur #Celebrate #WorldDay #National #NationalDay #InternationalDay #International #UN #US #SpecialDay #India #PrescriptionErrorsEducation&AwarenessWeek
