Medication control and oxygen management


The unusual state following a disaster may pose a risk that your disease could worsen because of the unavailability of medications or failure to take your medications.  You should take your medications as regularly as possible.  In addition, it is recommended that you prepare about 2-weeks' worth of spare medications for emergencies.  If you are using supplemental oxygen, you should keep a portable oxygen cylinder handy at all times.  After experiencing a disaster, you should consult your doctor as soon as possible.  To prepare for an emergency, record the names of your medications and instructions for taking them.  If you have any questions about your medications, immediately ask the physician, nurse, or pharmacist in charge.
