vitamins and supplements..do you take them?
I have been looking at my medicine cabinet and I have acquired a lot of bottles. I have reasons for taking all of them...this is what I take: AM: Geodon 80mg lamictal 100mg lithium orotate 240mg black cohosh 80mg Digestive enzyme vitamin d3 5000units Calcium 500mg vit C 1000mg Coq 10 100mg fish oils 3caps muti vitamin That is 15 pills! PM: Geodon 80mg lamictal 200mg klonipin .5mg lithium orotate 240mg black cohosh 80mg probiotic magnesium oxide 1000mg taurine 1000mg trytophan 1000mg GABA 1500mg That is 13 pills for a daily total of 28 pills. How do I go on vacation and take all of these pills for 2 weeks? I will have to bring a bag for all of my bottles. What do you think? bizi ______________

Take all the ones you need.
You can make room for them. Certainly take extras of the prescription pills. It is all going to work out. M |

If you are leaving the country on this vacation, all RX medications have to be in their orig labeled bottles. Best to put the RX ones in your purse. You can get duplicate labels from your pharmacy and put only that days supply during the vacation in each one leaving the back up ones at home.
You can mostly skip the supplements, for the trip. It will show you if they are working at all when you do a temporary stop. Only the Vit C is a worry. You can taper down off that for several days, to avoid a rebound scurvy. Vit C tends to make a dependency in people using high doses. Or you can buy a small bottle when you get "there".

I take a ton of pills, but aside from laxatives, all of mine are prescription meds. I don't even want to count them.
I'm glad that you are feeling better right now  Maybe it's a good thing that you didn't see the naturopath since what you are taking right now seems to be working… Last edited by OhKay; 12-04-2016 at 07:40 AM. Reason: Addition |
