Safe & Responsible DrivingStandalone practice
Your doctor prescribes a new medicine. The label warns that it can cause drowsiness, and you feel sleepy after the first dose. What should you do?
Correct answer: Do not drive, and ask your doctor or pharmacist how the medicine affects driving.
Why
Many prescription and over-the-counter medicines can slow your reactions or make you drowsy. The manual advises you to ask a physician or pharmacist about any prescription and to read the packaging of over-the-counter products for side effects that can affect driving. If you feel drowsy on a trip, pull over in a safe place, because tricks such as fresh air or loud music do not keep you alert.
