🌡️ With some parts of Canada already experiencing early-season heat warnings, it’s important to recognize how certain medications can increase the risk of heat-related illness.

💊 Some drugs impair the body’s ability to sweat, regulate temperature, or stay hydrated — raising the risk of heat exhaustion or heat stroke.

💡 Remember BADCLAP — a handy anagram to flag high-risk meds during heat events.
