New Pills
>> "for those who are about to die from a lab-error or dosage off by n-orders-of-magnitude..."

It may not be the dosage, but the pill itself.

"Patients who were prescribed sleeping pills were at least three to five times more likely to have died during the study than were the patients not prescribed sleeping pills."

This is explained in a new book : (available at your local library)

The other thing about medicine is non-adherence.

Dosage notwithstanding, if you don't take it, you don't get the supposed benfit:

"Among hypertensive patients 89,000 premature deaths could be avoided each year with appropriate medication treatment.

Common behaviors include:

1 in 2 people missed a dose
1 in 3 forgot if they took the med
1 in 4 did not get a refill on time"

(much more in the article,and an infographic!))

And so it goes...
New good medicine habits
I wake up and before I whiz or do anything else choke down 2 pills. If you have to take daily pills be religious about it.

New Same.
It has to be tied to something that happens every day at the same time.

New For me it's just vitamins, but yeah
I've got the pill next to the tub of protein powder that's my normal lunch. If I end up in a lunch meeting instead I usually forget to take the pill when I come back.
