Press Release Body: Marietta, Georgia (PR) August 12, 2008 - CNN recently posted a
reported on their web site about the importance of making sure that your health care
provider knows all of the medicines and supplements you are using.

Did you know that you should keep a record of all your medicines (prescription,
nonprescription, natural remedies, and vitamins)? Do you know why you take the
medication you take, in what form you take it (pill, liquid, shot.), the color and
shape, the dosage, any special instructions regarding the medication given to you by
the subscribing physician and what time a day (am, pm) you take it? Don't forget the
medications you put in your eyes or ears or even on your skin. Even if the
medication is "as needed" or "on occasion" your physicians need to have a complete
picture of your health care.

This information is very important when your provider prescribes a new medicine or
in an emergency. You may end up taking too many medicines. While some medicines
change the way other medicines work.

single source system, including contact numbers for doctors, pharmacies, insurance
companies, and more. By using the MedicMinder you'll always be prepared. You'll be

life and death. Most of us can't rely on our memory in times of great stress. Are
you willing to take the risk?

that all pertinent medical and drug history is documented in one comprehensive, easy
to use system. No second-guessing in an emergency - reach for the MedicMinder and
