proper dosages and times for the medications to be taken to avoid any unwanted interactions
and complications of the drugs. You should explain to Lillian detailed medication information
and how and when it is prescribed to take to make sure it is taken properly. Educate of proper
storage of the meds, what to do if a dose is missed, refill information, potential side effects of
each drug and when to call the doctor about any concerns.
