Questions to ask your pharmacist

• Does Acetylsalicylic Acid change how Theophylline works, or the other way round?

• Always tell your doctor/pharmacist about ALL medicines you take - prescriptions, OTC, supplements, and herbal products.
• Keep a current medicine list with doses and timings - photo on your phone is enough.

• Even 'safe' combinations need monitoring - note any unusual symptoms in the first few days.
• Use GoDavaii AI to double-check before adding any new medicine, supplement, or desi ilaaj.
