How many tablets do you take in the morning?

Got mine down to 5&a half of one, then one& the other half.for now.After my op i was on dozens a day!

Pregablin twice a day for nerve damage.

Lots of vitimans.

The same as me.

Lucky you!

Two. A beta blocker and an anti-platelet, both since I had a stroke a few years ago

1 or sometimes 2 antihistamines as I have 2 dogs and I've become allergic to them in the last 5 years.

Tenko

No prescription meds . Just otc vitamin c,d and b12 taken in the morning

Same! High five 😁

Yes, Jaxjacky. Familial high cholesterol is a genetic condition, not caused by diet. However, it only affects about one in 250+ patients with high cholesterol so diet, smoking or a sedentary lifestyle are commonly the cause.

I've stopped taking two of my tablets.
I kept being told my blood pressure was low, and i kept pointing out that at least 5 of my pills were for high blood pressure.

The gp gave me a monitor to use for two weeks, which i did, omitting one of the pills.
Blood pressure is ok now.
So, next was antidepressants.

Everytime i complained that i didnt feel well, up went the dose - "stress".
I've stopped those, too.
I actually had cirrhosis, not stress.

6 in the morning 2 are non prescription .
5 in the evening 2 are non prescription .

I'm surprised at the amount some Gransnetter's have to take. I'm not very good at taking tablets and have to have a drink with them, my OH amazes me that he can just swallow tablets dry.

We’re the other way round. 😊 I swallow tablets dry unless they’re the sort that have to be taken with water, DH can’t take his tiny tablets without gulping water and tossing his head back dramatically.

My routine is a vitamin tablet and a biotin tablet (non-prescription) in the morning, then a chewable calcium tablet at night.

Just one at night to reduce risk of heartburn. I used to take a 75mg aspirin each day, but since the war in Iran I find aspirins of any description very difficult to find.

Maybe a coincidence?

3 in the morning - 1 heart med, 1 blood thinner and 1 for under active thyroid. DH has just been diagnosed with glaucoma so as well as his BP meds and thyroxine I now have to put eye drops in twice a day for him.

9 in the morning 11 at night then throw in painkillers

I’ve just recently started taking Vitamin D as it’s recommended for everyone and B12 because I’m vegetarian.
My sister takes lots of prescription drugs but also gets vitamins and eye drops on prescription. If doctors stopped prescribing over the counter products there would be more money to treat those on long waiting lists.

Your last sentence, that is.

Have a look at British Supplements and type in stacks and have a read of the reviews. I gave up statins and as if by magic all my other problems disappeared. Statins are evil.

Not true.

14 In the morning and 9 at night, makes no difference still feel lousy

4 in the morning, 2 at night. I sometimes wonder what would happen if I stopped taking them - I suspect I might feel better.

No prescription drugs, I just take the occasional paracetamol for headaches or minor aches and pains.

4 Prescription in the morning. 3 different vitamin tablets when I have my main meal, 1 prescription and a baby aspirin at bedtime. Gosh! That’s 9. Ah well, I’m still here!

ExDancer Maybe a GP med review, not sure that codeine should be taken like that? 🤗

9 in am then 4 in pm. All heart meds.

10 morning after breakfast
3 after dinner
2 beftime
Paracetamol in between times if needed
No complaints I count myself lucky to be here

My father used to be on a lot of tablets, about 7 a day. He was admitted to hospital because of heart trouble and the doctors halved the tablets prescribed by his GP. I have as and when tablets apart from H2 blockers which I take twice daily for acid reflux.
