At the Pharmacy
I went to the Drugstore down the street To fill a prescription at the Pharmacy. I have had some problems with my arm and the doctor prescribed for me a new Medication. I waited in line and when it was my turn, I handed the prescription to the Pharmacist. She told me to come back in 15 minutes and she would have it ready for me.
In the meantime, I went to look for some Over the counter stomach medication. There was some in Tablets and Capsules. I decided on the capsules and returned to the pharmacy.
The pharmacist asked me if I had taken this medication before. I told her I hadn’t, and she pointed out the Directions on the bottle. It had the Dosage information: Take two tablets two times a day. There was also a Warning to not take it on An empty stomach. The bottle also said that I should stop taking the medication if I had any serious Side effects. The pharmacist told me to follow the directions Closely so that I can avoid an Overdose. I paid for the medication and thanked her for her help.
