FDA Updates 'Medicines in My Home' Patient Education Resources
Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has updated the Medicines in My Home (MIMH) section of the agency’s Web site with new resources and materials for patients. MIMH resources teach patients from adolescence through adulthood how to choose over-the-counter medicines and how to use them safely. An interactive video teaches users how to understand the drug facts label and make sound medicine decisions. Downloadable documents provide information on caffeine use, choosing appropriate over-the-counter medications, and other related topics.
