Medicines
Don't Mix
Script for a
30-Second Television Public Service Announcement
Male Actor: |
I have to admit, I'd never
given it that much thought.
Taking different medicines at the same time, I mean.
Like me, I was taking a prescription pain reliever after my
knee surgery.
But I was still hurting.
So, I took an over-the-counter medicine as well.
Until my doctor pointed out that they both contained the same
pain reliever.
So, I was actually taking more than I was supposed to without
even realizing it.
The best way to be sure is to know your medicines.
Take the time to be careful. |
Narrator: |
A message from the National
