May
National Safety Dose Day, on May 15, is a special day to remind everyone about the safe use of medicines. It teaches people how important it is to take the right amount of medicine as instructed by a doctor or on the label. This helps us stay healthy and avoid getting sick from taking too much or too little. On this day, families learn together to check medicine labels, use proper spoons or cups, and ask grown-ups if they have questions. It's like a day to make sure everyone knows how to stay safe with medicine.
