Pro-People Choices: Be Drug Smart, Slash
Costs, Be Safer, Be Healthier
ISBN 0595438172
Motivated drug consumers are eager to learn
how to live healthier, happier lives while
reducing both health-related costs and
drug-related problems. The author explains it all
in this timely and authoritative book.
Consumer drug prices are the result of
incremental contributions from discovery
through dosage delivery system design, clinical
trials, manufacturing, marketing and promotion,
drug distribution through the drug supply chain,
dispensing, and medication therapy
management activities which promote healthy
treatment outcomes. The author guides the
reader through a complex maze of the drug
discovery process, the regulatory approval
system for drugs and supplements, benefits and
risks associated with these products, and other
medication-related problems, as well as threats
to the nation's drug supply system, always with
an eye toward consumer drug safety and costs.
Anti-consumer, anti-competitive industry forces
have powerful influences on consumer choice,
drug prices and safety, and are all too often
reinforced by government and judicial failures.
In addition to adverse drug effects and
medication errors, consumer self-inflicted
drug-related problems are identified and
explained. The author discusses the costs and
consequences of these, including prescription
drug misuse, overuse and abuse, and
widespread failure to read labels and follow
directions. The relationship between consumer
drug and health literacy and these drug-related
problems is disclosed. Understanding the
relationships between these problems,
unhealthy lifestyles, quality of life, and overall
health-care spending is central to controlling
costs and maximizing drug therapy
effectiveness.
Less expensive alternatives to brand-name
prescription drug therapy include the use of less
costly generic drugs and responsible self-care
options, combining healthy lifestyles, OTC
drugs, and selected alternative and
complementary medicines, including dietary
and judiciously selected herbal supplements.
Self-medication and guidelines for safe and
effective use are discussed.,
