Legible labelling of dosage on Medication

Ensure that it is easy for most people with reasonable eyesight to read the dosage instructions on all medication. At the moment the instructions are often printed in type so small that many people are unable to read them.

Why is this important?

To prevent accidental overdose, and generally make life easier for those needing medication it seems logical that the critical information of how many to take, and how often, etc should be as clear as possible. Many people live alone and many have imperfect sight. Often the illness might make people less able than normal to cope with tiny text without searching for a magnifying glass. Clear concise and easy to read instructions might help maintain the independence of those forced to live alone.
