新春佳节将近,相信大家都忙碌于屋子大扫除,把家里老旧或不再需要用到的东西进行处置,除旧迎新。这个时候,正是检查家里药物的好时机。把家里的药物拿出来整理,检查药物的有效期,药物是否变质/变色,是否还需服用该药物(例如:医生调整了处方药)。
可以通过以下三个步骤处理药物 (3R):
Read: 阅读药箱里的药物的有效期
Remove: 把过期和不再需要的药物从药箱取出
Return: 把这些药物送到有处置过期药物服务的社区药房
药物需要通过正确的方法处置,不应该冲进马桶或丢弃到垃圾桶里,否则可能会造成环境污染,或是小朋友/宠物误食导致中毒。
谨记,服用药品前,若有疑问,请咨询就诊医生或药师,确保用药的安全。自行停药可能会延误或加重病情。
