Three practical points

  1. Separate current products from expired or discontinued ones.
  2. Make a simple record of what you actually took and when.
  3. If more than one caregiver helps, agree who updates the record before another dose is given.

In the Philippines, contact your usual health center, pharmacist or appropriate clinician for individual advice. Service availability and fees vary; ask the provider directly.
