No, but, did remember to get refills, so that I won't run short during Xmas.

Meds for me, meds for a kid, meds for a cat. I should start a pharmacy.
I can do upside down chocolate moo things!

I would have taken all of mine but one of my dexamphetamine tablets dropped on the floor and rolled away and I couldn't find it anywhere. So I took one instead of two.

When I drop mine, I have to hunt them down before Waggy finds them.  She got hold of one of them once, about half of which (2.5mg) dissolved in her mouth before I got it from her, and she spend the next several hours freaking out.

We have cats and they are pretty fussy, they wouldn't touch a tablet. That must have tasted pretty bad to Waggy, have you chewed a dexamphetamine tablet before? Pretty disgusting. I think my tablet rolled under the fridge.

The ones that I take have lactose in the binder, so they taste sweet when chewed.

It must differ from country to country. The ones I take are quite bitter.

I'm back at that stage in my medication cycle where 40mg of dexamphetamine is no longer enough to keep me alert, or even awake, for a full 16 hours and I have to decide whether to compensate with caffeine or take a break from the dexamphetamine.  I'm going to have a sleep study done at some point in Jan/Feb, and the neurologist who's assessing me is keen to switch me from dexamphetamine to modafinil, which is reputed to be free from the tolerance issues that force me to take frequent breaks from dexamphetamine.  I'm curious about modafinil, but also apprehensive about coming off of dexamphetamine, since the dexamphetamine has a nice assortment of benefits besides just keeping me awake and I wouldn't like to lose those other benefits.
