AT A GLANCE
Prepare the names, doses and reasons for your medicines, plus a description of previous allergic reactions. Include non-prescription products and supplements. Do not stop prescribed medicine on your own to prepare for a cosmetic appointment.
Record the reaction rather than only the label
For an allergy or previous adverse reaction, explain the substance, what happened and when it occurred. If you do not know a medicine’s English name, bring its packaging or a clear product record for the clinician to review. Include previous reactions to injections or numbing products. Ask the clinic how it wants to receive sensitive information; the public website is not a medical-record upload service.
Questions to bring to your consultation
Use these questions to turn your interests into a specific discussion with your doctor. Keep the proposed treatment, the reason for it and the follow-up arrangements together in your notes.
- Which medication details should I bring to the appointment?
- Does any proposed preparation require advice from my prescribing clinician?
- How should I document a reaction when the ingredient is uncertain?
Your questions
Should I stop a prescription because an online guide mentions bruising?
Do not change prescribed medicine based on this guide. Discuss it with the treating clinician and, where relevant, the clinician who prescribed it before making a change.
