5 Signs You Might Need a Medication Review

Managing your medications shouldn’t feel overwhelming.
But between new prescriptions, changing health conditions, and confusing dosages, it’s easy to lose track of what’s best for your health.
At Medicine Shoppe Meadowlark, we understand that managing multiple medications can be stressful — and that’s exactly why a professional medication review can make such a difference.

If you’ve been wondering whether it’s time to check in with your pharmacist, here are five common signs that a medication review could help you feel more confident and in control of your health.

1. You’re Experiencing Side Effects

If you’ve started noticing dizziness, upset stomach, fatigue, or any new symptoms after beginning or changing a medication, it might be time for a review.
Sometimes side effects occur because of dosage issues or interactions between different prescriptions.
A pharmacist-led medication review at Medicine Shoppe Meadowlark can help identify what’s causing the issue — and work with your doctor to find safer, more comfortable alternatives.

2. You’re Taking Multiple Medications

If you’re managing prescriptions from several different doctors, there’s a higher chance of drug interactions or overlapping effects.
During a medication review, your pharmacist carefully checks for these potential conflicts and ensures each medication is still necessary and effective.
Our goal is to simplify your routine and ensure every prescription works together for your benefit.

3. You’ve Recently Started or Stopped a Medication

Any time your prescription list changes — whether adding a new one or stopping an old one — your body may react differently.
A review helps make sure your new medications won’t interfere with others and that you’re taking them correctly.
It’s a small step that helps prevent big problems down the line.

4. You Have a New Health Condition

If you’ve been diagnosed with a new condition like diabetes, high blood pressure, or thyroid disease, it’s crucial to revisit your medications.
Some prescriptions may need adjustments based on your changing health needs.
At Medicine Shoppe Meadowlark, our pharmacists take the time to understand your full health picture so you always have the safest, most effective treatment plan.

5. You’re Having Trouble Managing Your Medications

If you ever feel unsure about when or how to take your prescriptions — or you’ve missed doses because of confusion — you’re not alone.
We can help by offering compliance packaging that organizes your medications by day and time, so you never have to second-guess again.
Our team is always here to explain each medication clearly and help make your daily routine easier.
