Here is a scenario. You are taking your medications as prescribed by your physician. You don’t miss a dose, and you’re storing your medications properly. But why does it seem like your medications aren’t working as they should?

Here are possible reasons why.

• Your diet may be interfering with your medications.
  Some medications in California do not react well with certain foods. These foods may interfere with the absorption of the medicines in your body and cause it to lose its effectiveness. Food-drug interactions can even lead to worse consequences, so you must communicate with your doctors or pharmacists when taking medications.
• You have an interfering medical condition.
  Different medical conditions may interfere with your medications and cause them not to work properly. So if you haven’t informed your physician about your high blood pressure or hormonal issues, then they may not have prescribed the best medication to combat a particular illness.
• Your lifestyle is affecting your medications.
  An unhealthy lifestyle can not only affect your physical health, but it can also affect how your medications work. For example, alcoholic drinks can increase the risk of hypoglycemic interactions if it mixes with insulin.
