1. Where can I find information about my medications that I can read and refer back to if needed?

• Check with your pharmacist.
• Read the package inserts and labeling. If you don’t understand something or become concerned once you read the label, ask your pharmacist or prescribing physician to answer your questions.
• Pharmaceutical manufacturers often maintain a Web site or produce patient education materials you can obtain from your physician or nurse.
• Join Allergy & Asthma Network Mothers of Asthmatics (AANMA)! ^[1] As a member, you’ll receive AANMA’s monthly award-winning publications brimming with practical, consumer-friendly news about medications, devices, products, services, you name it!
• Go to your library to use the BIG book – Physician’s Desk Reference (PDR), PDR for Nutritional Supplements, or PDR for Herbal Medicines.
• Go to PDR Health ^[2], the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ^[3], or The National Library of Medicine’s MedlinePlus ^[4].
• Use your Internet browser to search for information about the medication by name.
