Do you take any medicine daily?

[spits 70]

I probably should but don't like medicine.  I should also be taking supplements.  One of the things I really need to do.  And procrastinating badly over.

[Haruhi-chan 486]

I do. I take a beta blocker to help my pulse, which I started recently. I also take abilify because I have severe emotional problems that cause severe anxiety and depressive tendencies. I also take concerta as well, which is for my ADHD. I've been taking concerta for years too, and it's helped me a lot. I'm on the highest dosage, but it works well for me so I can't stop taking it either.

 

Other meds I take are Klonopin and vistaril. X3 Klonopin is for my anxiety, and vistaril is for anxiety + hives I get every now and then. These are only take as needed though.

Yuppers, i take a mix of pain killers (Tylenol, aspirin, and Motrin) for chronic leg and back pain, as well as Zoloft for depression.

[ReverseFaller 2,483]

Not as of now, I don't. I will be in the future though, once I go to the sleep center and get a sleep test done for my narcolepsy. God only knows what medication they'll put me on. 

[Star Saber 114]

I take Cipralex to help with anxiety; Crestor to help with my "Low Good Cholesterol" and a third to help with my sleep; it's name escapes me at the moment.

[Magic Note 2,734]

I take medicine to help with lowering my blood pressure and anxiety daily. I take one twice in a day, the other is once a day.

[Fizz. 1,078]

I take Prozac for depression, and a mood stabilizer, but neither of them seem to work.

[Antidaeophobia 299]

I've got multiple chronic life threatening health issues that leave me disabled. So I a handful of pills and inhalers everyday for stuff like my chronic severe lung disease, COPD, sinusitis, osteoporosis, gastroparesis and chronic pain, to name a few.

 

Funny enough though, my blood pressue, blood sugar, cholesteral and heart are perfect. LOL Just about the only thing that does work in my body.

I take a preventor, a protector inhaler daily (though the protector is only for another month) as well as my reliver inhaler as and when needed.

[PSP (Dizzy) 201]

Yeah, I do. Not gonna say what, though.

Disclaimer: I'm not a doctor and this is not any form of medical advice. Never take any medicine unless you talk to your doctor about it first. Any medicine can be dangerous or even fatal if used incorrectly. Children under 18 should never mess with any kind of medication without counseling from both their doctor and their legal parent(s)/guardian(s) first.
 

I take the following 3 prescription medications on a daily basis:

• Citalopram HBR, generic for Celexa. I take 40 mg once a day in the morning for major depression and anxiety, which is the maximum safe dose for adults.
   
• Hydroxyzine HCL. I usually take 100 mg a day at night for anxiety and sleep, which is the maximum safe dose for adults. However, I have it in 25 mg pills so I can take it throughout the day (without ever exceeding 100 mg) as needed.
   
• Clonidine HCL, generic for Catapres. I just started this recently, so I only take 0.1 mg a night for sleep. The maximum allowed dose for me is 0.3 mg. The maximum safe dose for adults is 0.8 mg, but that's only for emergency situations involving blood pressure as this is primarily a blood pressure medication, although that's not what I'm using it for.

I also take the following OTC medication as needed:

• Ibuprofen. The maximum safe dose for adults listed on the bottle is 400 mg, but I started taking more after consulting with a doctor. Never take more than what it says is safe for your age group on the bottle without first speaking with your doctor.
   
• Acetaminophen. I usually take 1,000 mg which is really toeing the line. That's the safest amount adults can take at one time.

The medication I take is somewhat dangerous and has the downside of forming dependencies, which can be very problematic. For example, if I just up and stopped taking my antidepressant suddenly I could become very sick. If I ever end up going off of it the doctor would need to prescribe me a plan to wane off of it slowly to avoid harm.

Heh, I do now since I have to treat my ulcer :1. Not forever, though.

[Dewdlz 938]

I take Celexa for major depressive disorder and high anxiety. Although, these don't always help. I see some familiar meds such as Fluoxetine, Prozac, Adderall and Zoloft here that I used to take since my depression and anxiety go back a long way.

[MsMegan91 117]

I take Beta Blockers but that's it at the moment...

[Snow Frostflame 3,567]

I use to take Advair, Metadate, and some third pill I cant remember what it was called, when I was a kid...... shit I hated the Metadate it was suppose to help me with my ADD which it did but it also strengthen the hell out of my metabolism and I never ate while it was in my system

 

 

as of now I don't take anything..... well besides my inhaler

[GanjaWhiteNite420 16]

Cannabis 4+ more times a day plus the occasional painkiller for added special effects ..none of my doctors have a licence if ya kno wat i mean

[Ink Drop 18]

I don't know the exact names but I take 2 pills a day for my epilepsy, I have my my inhaler and I take Sertraline for anxiety.

[IcyHaze 593]

I'm not a fan of taking pills all the time - it seems like they're prescribed for the some pretty stupid things nowadays, especially in American from what I can see.

Yet despite that, I have to take 2 anti-imflammatory painkillers each night before bed due to a long term injury, and in the past I was put on anti-depressants.

[FeatherNight 35]

I really really hate taking medicine,

but I do try to take my omoperozle almost daily- I dunno how to spell it

[Midnight Solace 5,129]

I have to take Seroquel, Zyprexa, Fluvoxamine, Melatonin and Mirtazapine every day. 

I didn't mind taking medicine at first, but now I think I really hate them. I only take them cause they help me stop thinking of bad thoughts.

[Lucky Bolt 34,914]

Nope, I used to though when I was little. I had kidney problems as a kid, and I had to tak prescription medicine daily. I haven't any more issues with it for years now and no longer need medicine. 

[Thuja 3,658]

I take 5 supplements, my anti-psychotic and my anti-depression pills.  I think I take around 10 pills a day?  I also have my weekly Testosterone injection I give myself every Monday.  I think since I'm also starting a medical research thing, I'll be taking two extra pills a day...  Goody....

[GiFTGewEhrSCHutzen-4 8,827]

I take Metformin, twice a day, morning and evening. I'm Diabetic. 

[Phosphor 11,522]

Right now, just blood pressure medicine. It's been a little while since I've watched an MLP episode, so my blood pressure is up again.  

[Partialgeek514 4,920]

I take two medications a day for my depression and anxiety. It's a bit annoying, but I guess I've gotten used to it.
