How do I understand the directions on my new pill bottle?
You will turn the words on your pill bottle into plain, easy language.
Pill bottle words can be short and hard to read. It is okay to feel unsure.
ChatGPT is a free typing helper. You can type the words on the label.
It will explain them in plain language. Then you know how to take your medicine.
Try this
- Open ChatGPT and find the typing box.
- Type only the directions printed on your pill bottle.
- Leave out your name, the medicine name, and any numbers.
- Ask it to explain them in plain, simple words.
- If anything is still unclear, call your pharmacist.
A message you can copy
My pill bottle says [paste only the directions, not your name or the medicine name]. Please explain in plain, simple words what this means.
Paste it into ChatGPT, then change the words in brackets to fit you. It opens in a new tab, so you will not lose this page.
