"WARNINGS" -
When to stop taking the medicine; when to see a doctor; possible
side effects
"EXP.
DATE" - When to throw it out
You wouldn't
ignore your doctor's instructions for using a prescription drug;
so don't ignore the label when taking a nonprescription (OTC) medicine.
When it comes to medicines, more does not necessarily mean better.
You should never misuse OTC medicines by taking them longer or in
higher doses than the label recommends. Symptoms that persist are
a clear signal it's time to see a doctor.
Remember,
if you read the label and still have questions, talk to a doctor,
nurse or pharmacist.
