Step-by-step explanation:

• Approximately 250,000 Australians are admitted to hospital every year because of problems associated with the use of medicines.
• Some of reasons include taking medicines incorrectly, combining them with alcohol or using medicines prescribed for someone else.
• Make sure your doctor and other health professionals know about every medicine you take, including prescription, non-prescription and over-the-counter medicines, and complementary medicines such as vitamin, mineral and herbal supplements.
• Keep all medicines out of children’s reach.
• Dispose of unwanted or out-of-date medicines by returning them to your local pharmacy – never give any of your medicines to other people.
