Here's the latest article from the Senior Issues site at BellaOnline.com. (Normally newsletters are sent on Saturday, but since I plan to be out of town on Saturday, I thought I'd send this one a little early. Enjoy!)

STOP PRESCRIPTION DRUGS FROM BEING HAZARDOUS TO YOUR HEALTH
How to avoid becoming a medication error statistic

QUOTE OF THE WEEK:
"Doctors are men who prescribe medicines of which they know little, to cure diseases of which they know less, in human beings of whom they know nothing." -- Voltaire

TIP OF THE WEEK:
Why not take a few minutes right now, while you're thinking about it, to make a list all of your medications? Include the name of the medicine, the dose, and how often you take it. Be sure to include over the counter medications and herbal remedies as well as medications prescribed by doctors. Keep this list current and make sure EVERY doctor who is treating you has a copy.
