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?

The Pacific Northwest has seen its fair share of winter weather already. High winds, heavy rains, and winter storms can cause long-lasting power outages, change road conditions quickly, and create unsafe debris. Now is a great time to make sure you are prepared for more winter weather as the season continues. ✅ Make preparations for power outages. What is your household's plan if the power is out for multiple days? ✅ Check and restock your emergency supplies in your car, at work, and at home. ✅ Check tripcheck.com/ before travelling and adjust your travel plans as needed. If road conditions are poor, consider avoiding non-essential travel. ✅ Secure items before the wind starts. Keep updated with the weather forecast: www.weather.gov/ ✅ Be mindful of falling trees or tree limbs. ✅ Prepare for flooding, including sandbagging, before rain or rising river levels: https://www.co.lincoln.or.us/757/Hazards-Flooding-River-MonitoringWatch video on Facebook.com
