Finding Medication Information

Finding Medication Information

At CVS/pharmacy, we want to keep you informed about your medications. Visit our Drug Information Center for detailed information about your prescription medications.

Learning about your prescriptions

Before taking any medication, it's important to be informed. Our Drug Information Center provides information including what to do if a dose is missed, how to store and dispose of medicine, drugs and foods to avoid, and more.

Finding out about side effects

The risk of side effects is possible with some medications. That's why it's critical that you always ask your doctor or pharmacist about side effects before using any medications.

For more about a specific drug's possible side effects, visit our Drug Information Center, search for the medication and go to its dedicated page. Then click on “What side effects may I notice from receiving this medicine?”

Researching potential interactions

Use our Drug Interaction Checker tool to check for possible interactions between your medication and other prescriptions, over-the-counter drugs, vitamins, supplements and lifestyle choices.
