- Older adults
- Outdoor workers
- Young children
- People with heart or kidney disease
Medicines and heat
Offer water and a cooler room, not just a text.
Some blood pressure and psychiatric medicines affect heat response. Ask your pharmacist if you are unsure. Never stop a medicine because of a blog. This is general awareness, not a personal heat plan.
