Out of Your Medications216 All medications, prescription and
over-the-counter (OTC), have benefits as well as risks
associated with their use. The risks may include side effects,
allergic reactions, and interactions with foods, drinks, or
other drugs. You can increase the potential benefits and reduce
potential risks by taking medications properly. It is estimated
that up to half of all people who use medications do not use
them as prescribed.Topics: Bowel urgency, Constipation,
