Description

In order for your doctor and pharmacist to be able to optimally help you, it’s critical that at least one of your doctors (such as your primary care doctor) knows all of your medicines, and it’s best to get them all at the same pharmacy. Getty Images.

DEAR DR. ROACH: I am an 84-year-old male in fairly good health for my age. I take 8-10 pills a day, including two over-the-counter medications. I take four or five in the morning and four or five in the evening. My question is, how effective are these medications if they are all being taken together and mixed in my stomach? Won’t there be some kind of chemical reaction resulting in less effectiveness?

Last week, May 3–9, 2026, we celebrated Public Service Recognition Week in Tualatin, recognizing the dedication, professionalism, and contributions of public employees who serve our community every day. Public service is an honorable calling that includes a wide range of professions that help keep our community strong and connected. From providing recreational opportunities and maintaining public safety to improving transportation, protecting our environment, and supporting essential government operations, public employees play a vital role in the daily life of Tualatin. Tualatin’s city employees contribute significantly to the quality of life in our community through their commitment to excellence, high ethical standards, and diverse skills. Their work helps make Tualatin a wonderful place to live, work, play, and volunteer. Public Service Recognition Week also provided an opportunity to express appreciation for the many contributions public employees make to our daily lives and to recognize the important services they provide to the community. This proclamation was introduced and adopted at the April 27, 2026 City Council Meeting. We encourage our community to join us in recognizing Public Service Recognition Week and celebrating the accomplishments and contributions of public employees.
