What are Medication Contraindications?

A contraindication has a simple meaning: it indicates when a particular medication should not be taken with another because it could cause serious side effects. For instance, combining blood thinners like Warfarin with certain over-the-counter pain relievers like Ibuprofen can increase bleeding risks. At this seminar, you will learn about various prescriptions and over-the-counter medications, how they can affect one another, and what signs to watch for when managing your health.

Expert Guidance

The seminar will be led by Alyssa Sandoval, PharmD, an experienced pharmacist from Spanish Peaks Regional Health Center. With her background, attendees can expect to gain essential insights into their medications, including possible side effects and dangerous interactions. This is a great chance to ask questions and address any concerns about your medication regimen.

Many people overlook the potential side effects of medications. Even common drugs, like antihistamines, can cause drowsiness, which can be harmful when driving or operating machinery. Rarely, more severe reactions can occur, such as allergic responses that may require immediate medical attention. By participating in this seminar, you will learn how to spot these side effects and understand why discussing them with your healthcare provider is crucial.
