  I did!  And my new multivitamins are smaller and easier to swallow!  :2thumbsup:
What colour are they?

Pray, do give us the details. The bigger ones were in a classy lavender coating, if my memory is not deceiving me.

It was a grey day. Autumn seems to have really started. I did not take my meds.

I got the prescription for antibiotics for six months. Somehow I got the meds for a bit longer. While the sun was still at full force, I kept taking it, pretending I was :blonde: and could not count to six. But this morning I thought, what the heck, I've been taking them since a long time (looked back in this thread, started somewhere in January). I should be OK without for some time.

If the face and eyes get inflamed really soon, I'll just take them for another 7 weeks. :P

walkie, PM me and explain your history, sensitivities, particular needs, what you have tried, any allergies, intolerances (e.g gluten, egg,  lactose etc).

I should be able to help. Plus tell me both meds your on, and any you specifically can't take (and the reason why), plus any medical complaints current.

  The new ones are lavender too, just smaller.  :2thumbsup:

  I don't remember taking the Strattera, but I counted them and it appears I did.  :dunce:

I honestly don't remember.

  I hate it when that happens.  I'm wide awake this morning, so I will remember.  :thumbup:

Finally had my antiseizure meds, I didn't yesterday. Dropped and rolled under the sofa. I saw the caps but they look just like the liquorice comfits both in size, shape, and sometimes color that I'd dropped everywhere too so they were ignored until I went to toss them and felt the consistency/texture was pliable rather than hard.

Aren't they meant to be kept in a bottle?

I missed my lunchtime and afternoon dexamphetamine because I'm just sitting at home doing nothing so there is no need for it. Back to college and regular dosage tomorrow.

  Yes I have.  Still have heartburn despite the omeprazole (generic name for Prilosec)
  and still have a pounding headache despite the ibuprofen.  Hope the :coffee: will fix the latter!

Try pantoprazole instead of omeprazole CBC, its a lot more effective of a PPI. I did and it works a lot better for my GORD.
