Things to Consider
Always tell your doctor what other drugs you take. This includes medicines, vitamins, and supplements. The doctor also should know about all ongoing health conditions. Some medicines may not be safe to take. Do not start a new drug without your doctor’s approval.
It is important to follow instructions when taking chronic pain medicines. Some side effects can be harmful and cause other health concerns. They can also be harmful to your lifestyle if you develop a problem. Do not stop taking a drug without your doctor’s approval.
