Often yes, but interactions matter, particularly with anticoagulants, antidepressants, antibiotics, statins, and grapefruit juice. Keep one updated list of everything you take, including supplements, and have a pharmacist review it periodically.
Ask a pharmacist or doctor for a structured medication review. In older adults, deprescribing unnecessary medicines often improves function more than adding new ones.
Keep one printed list with drug names, doses and timings, and carry it to every appointment and hospital visit.
