Your doctor or health care provider can be a huge help in keeping you well, as long as he or she knows your complete health history.

The Cleveland Clinic says you and your doctor should always share information about:

• Any health conditions other than the one being treated.
• Your current regimen of medications, herbs or supplements.
• Allergies to any medication, food or substance.
• Trouble taking any medication.
• If you may be pregnant, are pregnant, are planning to get pregnant or are breast-feeding.
• If you are following a specific diet, such as one that’s low-sugar or low-sodium.
