OURJEET - SANDOZ | Patients | Taking My Pills Regularly

1. How can remember to take my pills regularly?

Some people mark off each day on a calendar they take their medicine. Others count out the nextday's pills before they go to bed at night. And others get 7 little pill bottles… labelling them Monday, Tuesday, and so forth… and counting out the pills each Sunday. Take your pills the same time every day. Find a system that works for you. If you have difficulty remembering to take your pills, your doctor can recommend that your pill taking be supervised by a trained health worker.

2. Will the pills make me sick?

The pills are strong…to beat TB… and they may make some people a little sick. If you have any trouble, tell the doctor or nurse right away. They'll try to get rid of the trouble.

3. What "side effects" should I tell the doctor about?

· Poor appetite
· Always tired
· Urine the color of coffee or tea
· Yellow eyes or skin
· Rash or itching
· Fever
· Blurred vision
· Unusual pain in hands, feet, joints
· Headaches
· Feeling dizzy

These side effects don't often happen. If any of them should happen, stop taking your pills until you check with your doctor or clinic.
