A heatwave does not affect everyone in the same way. For some people, the danger is not only the temperature outside, but the medicine already in their system, the condition they are treating, and how the body reacts when it is trying to stay cool.

Health officials do not advise people to suddenly stop prescribed medication during hot weather. The safer message is more practical: know whether your medicine can increase dehydration, dizziness, sun sensitivity, overheating, or storage problems, then speak to a pharmacist or doctor if you are worried.
