Poll: Just Curious, How Many are Currently Taking Prescription Drugs ie Ritalin, Prozac, water pills etc.

[Infos]

I wonder how much we all are contributing
to the legal drug industry

 

[erub]

currently taking accutane, a 40 dose one day and 80 the next. That's 1 pill the first day, and 2 the next..The thing costs about $8 per pill retail, insurance is good

 

[crab]

Taking Neurontin

 

[techweenie]

Currently taking IC Hydrocodone... Aka Vicodin. Makes for an intersting day of sitting around and watching the Buffy marathon.

PS - What's the song that's in the new Gap commercial?

 

[Cyberian]

Prescription:
Amiodarone
Furosemide
K-Dur
Lanoxin
Lipitor
Toprol

Also:
Vitamin B-1
Enteric Aspirin
Protegra

My Pharmacist is planning to retire at 30.

 

[ZAQ3211]

I take NO PRESCRIPTION medications.

In 1964 an OFFICE CALL $ 3 = one hour pay.

In 1964 anti-biotics $1.500 to $2.00 = 1/2 to 2/3 of one hour pay.

Insurance ONLY paid 80/20 for Major Medical.

Where did the money go?

ZAQ

 

[Looney]

Combivent inhaler.

 

[Scouzer]

Ah damn I voted not yet because I thought you meant attention drugs, then realized you meant any.

I take an inhaler for Sports Initiated Asthma and some pills for zitz...

 

[Random Variable]

I take Zoloft for anxiety

 

[tcsenter]

<< I take NO PRESCRIPTION medications. >>

Yeah, and that is painfully obvious to everyone except you, ZAQ.

I take Adderall, and no you can't have any.

 

[Infos]

Vote?

[Elita1]

I'm taking a prescription pill that controls heavy pregnancy nausea, which unlike most women, assails me all nine months of pregnancy.
Yeah, more fun than a barrel of monkeys!
But only two months left, thank God

 

[RambleOn]

I pop an occasional Xanax when I need to relax.

 

[Electric Amish]

None for me, but my wife makes up for it...

Actiq (Fentanyl Citrate) for pain
Kadian (Morphine Sulfate, extended release) for pain
Methadone (for pain)
Topomax (for neurological pain)
Zanaflex (for muscle spasms caused by Methadone)
Clonidine patch (for withdrawal symptoms)
Ambien (for sleep)

I'll take the occasional Claritin if my allergies really start to bug me.

amish

 

[d0ofy]

Claritin-D and Cipro.

 

[AreaCode707]

I take:
Naprosyn
Plaquenil
Metholtrexate
Folic Acid
Tagamet

The last two are to hold in check the side effects of the previous three. I have Rheumatoid Athritis and those drugs allow me to walk without limping and type without wincing. I still can't open jars or make a fist with my right hand but I'm way better off than I was a month ago, pre-prescription. I'm just glad my health insurance covers cost. Runs into the $$$$ over the year.

 

[ChrichtonsGirl]

Atenolol, Triamterine, Zoloft and Klonopan here. Occasionally Percoset for migraines. I'm scheduled to start Interferon in January, depending on my blood counts.

Thank heavens for insurance with copay prescription coverage.

 

[Infos]

hmm interesting
19-19
(better than that San Fran game last night)

 

[khtm]

holy crap.

i didn't think so many people would actually need to use prescription drugs. what is the world coming to?
Elita, I sure hope your baby isn't affected by your drugs.

 

[Infos]

I read the other day that prescriptions for anti-anxiety and sleeping pills
have gone up 9 % since September 11

 

[Beowolf]

I don't take any type of drug. Not even aspirin. The last time I remember having to take anything was 16 years ago when I had painkillers for dental surgery.

I started that two months ago, and while I see a huge improvement, its still not as good as it should be in my book. I am waiting for insurance to get on accutane too, thats stuffs expensive!
