Medications: Protect Against Tampering
  • Read the label about the product's tamper-evident features.
  • Look at the package for tampering signs such as broken seals, puncture holes, or open or damaged wrappings.
  • Look at the medicine. Never take medicine that is discolored, has an unusual odor, or seems suspicious in some other way. Check with the pharmacist if you have any questions.
  • Return suspicious medicine to the store manager or pharmacist.
  • Look again when you take a dose. Never take medicine if you're not alert or can't see clearly.
