☀️💊 Did you know that summer heat can affect your medications?

High temperatures can impact how some medications work—and certain prescriptions may even make you more sensitive to heat or increase your risk of dehydration.

This summer, remember to:

🚗 Never leave medications in a hot car
💧 Stay well hydrated, especially if you take medications that increase fluid loss
☀️ Ask your pharmacist if any of your medications can make you more sensitive to the sun or heat

A few simple precautions can help keep both you and your medications safe all season long.

🩺 Colon cancer screening saves lives—and knowing when to get a colonoscopy is an important part of staying on top of your health.

Many people are now advised to begin routine screening around age 45, but the right timing can vary based on personal risk factors such as family history or certain medical conditions. Regular screening can help detect changes early—often before symptoms appear.

If you’ve been putting it off or aren’t sure when to start, this is a great time to talk with your healthcare provider and get the facts.
