If your doctor says medicine can help you, give your treatment a chance to succeed.


Know Why You’re Taking It


If you know how your medicine works, you’ll know why it’s important not to miss a dose. Ask your doctor:


What is the name of my medicine? How and when do I take it?


What does it do? Does it treat current stones, prevent future stones or both? How will I know it’s working?


Is there anything I need to avoid when taking it (foods, drinks, supplements, medicines)?


What side effects should I expect, and what should I do?


Be sure to tell your doctor about other prescription drugs or over-the-counter medicines or supplements you’re taking. Ask if they are safe to take together.
