Hearing Loss Impacts Your Wellbeing

Hearing loss is more than just an annoyance. It has a significant impact on your health, social, and economic state. Even a mild loss can result in communication difficulties. This commonly leads to withdrawal from social situations, creating social isolation. A lack of social connection can have serious consequences on mental health, including depression and mental degradation. Studies indicate those with untreated hearing loss are more likely to develop Alzheimer’s disease, and are twice more likely to develop dementia. Hearing loss can also impact your work, affecting income. Don’t compromise your health and overall wellbeing. If you’ve noticed changes in your hearing, get your hearing tested.

Combining Medications

People often don’t think about over-the-counter (OTC) drugs when a health professional asks if they are taking any medications. OTC drugs can include things like pain relievers, allergy medications, and even herbal supplements. Mixing doctor-prescribed and OTC medications can present numerous problems related to dangerous drug interactions. Interactions can cause simple reactions such as rashes, or more serious reactions such as difficulty breathing or seizures. Certain ingredients in medications can also overlap, meaning the patient is ingesting more than the recommended amount of a certain ingredient. To prevent dangerous interactions between OTC and doctor-prescribed medications, tell your pharmacist or health professional about ALL drugs and natural products you are taking.
