It’s cold and flu season, and that means people are popping acetaminophen to help with their symptoms. It’s important to talk to your patients about using acetaminophen safely to avoid liver damage, and you can amplify that message by making smart use of your social media channels. KnowYourDose.org has a handy communications toolkit with graphics and text you can use to help your patients navigate safe acetaminophen use.
The Acetaminophen Awareness Coalition developed and recently launched the Know Your Dose Acetaminophen Dosing Calculator. It’s a free educational tool to help patients safely use OTC and prescription products that contain acetaminophen. Explore the calculator and share it with your patients at their next visit to spread the word in your newsletters or social media feeds.
