Consumer Info on Meds
The government website MedSafe is a good first port of call to find out about meds you are prescribed, or may be prescribed.
http://www.medsafe.govt.nz/Consumers/cmi/CMIForm.asp
or
http://www.medsafe.govt.nz/profs/Datasheet/datasheet.htm (this link leads to info for medical pratitioners etc, so the info is somewhat more comprehensive that in the first link which leads you to Consumer Orientated info.
Please remember that not everyone has the same results from similar dosages of the same meds, 'cos we are all different.
NO MEMBER IS PERMITTED TO SUGGEST OR TELL ANY OTHER MEMBER THAT THEY SHOULD STOP TAKING PRESCRIPTION MEDICATIONS. These decisions are incredibly important and you must make them in consultation with your medical team and maybe, whanau.
Please, do not misuse your supply of medications. Some of us still have lots of trouble getting continuity of supply because of silly things we've done in the distant past with meds. It can complicate life like you may not realise.
