Preventing drug toxicity involves multiple strategies:
1. Adherence to Prescriptions: Taking medications exactly as prescribed by healthcare professionals. 2. Monitoring: Regular monitoring of drug levels in patients taking medications with a narrow therapeutic index. 3. Education: Educating patients about the potential risks of drug interactions and the importance of not exceeding recommended doses. 4. Medical History: Thorough review of a patient's medical history and current medications to identify potential interactions and contraindications.
