The Importance of Medication Management
Proper medication management is crucial for several reasons:

2. Ensuring medication effectiveness: Taking medications as prescribed is essential for managing chronic conditions and maintaining overall health.
3. Avoiding over- or under-medication: Individuals may accidentally take too much or too little of a medication, which can have serious consequences.
