Joonie: Have you ever told your doctors or your pharmacist that you take all of your meds. at the same time in the evening? Am thinking there's a possibility that by taking them all at the same time could result in some of your symptoms. Like some should be taken without food and others with food. Also, some meds. have to be taken at different times so as not to negate the effects of another med. or to cause other complications. Just a thought. watchingwolf2008-03-25 07:56:28Yep, told RD about it, she asked when I take all of my meds last visit to her. And she said it was all fine. Joonie: Don't know if you are being prescribed meds. by more than one doctor or if you are having your prescriptions filled by one or more pharmacists. If more than one doctor is prescribing meds. for you and if you are having them filled by more than one pharmacy I would suggest you take a complete list of your meds. to one pharmacist and have he/she evaluate your meds. The pharmacists are the only ones who have the real info on drug interactions and side effects.

I do not go to more than one doctor. I have not been to see my GP since I started visiting my RD. I ONLY get meds from my RD, no other doctor. And no, I cannot get them filled at more than one pharmacy. I only use Wal-Mart. And they have my whole list of meds, I even had them include Remicade a while back, when I was updating my information.

My current list of meds I take is:
 
Remicade 300mg - given at RD office.
Nortriptylin 30mg - says take at bedtime.
Prednisone 10mg - says take daily.
Imuran 100mg - Says take daily.
 
Then if I need it:
Robaxin - says take as needed.
Davocet - says take as needed.
Naproxen - says take as needed.
 
Newly Added Meds:

Forgot to add:
 
Before Infusions (to keep from having allergic reaction):

Tylenol Arthritis
