Do you take daily medication?

If so, what medication do you take?
 
Yup. hehe Zyprexa (bi-polar, anxiety, paranoia), Zoloft (depression), and a new one, Welbutrin which is supposed to give me more pep and focus since the Zyprexa tends to "zap" me.

Also a bunch of vitamins and herbs like garlic, turmeric, 1000mg C, D, a multi, calcium, zinc, folic acid and a few more. :D
 
I don't take any medications because some of the stuff those doctors prescribe isn't good on your kidneys or liver. Unless it's something like an antibiotic or a steriod that I absolutely have little choice but to take. I'll take it. But medications like anti depressants I stay away from because they increase the chances of a heart attack in men and have bad side effects and withdraw symptoms. The most I'll do is Ibuprofen for my headaches and that's where I draw the line.
 
Sadly, if I'm off my pills, I end up having a psychotic break (it's happened several times when I went off them myself). :( I'll trade that for possible side effects any day....
 
I'm just on Sertraline 100mg for my depression - though I'm a bugger for forgetting to take them.. ?

..I can often tell when I've forgotten, my stress goes up and my tolerance goes down.

My g/f and I both take that. Zoloft, right? I have to take a mood stabilizer with it since I'm bi-polar. By itself I get so worked up and manic that I felt like my brain was going to explode! o_O

Zoloft is a brand/trade name of Sertraline, yes.

I definitely need a mood stabilizer along with the Zoloft. Together it's freaking magic.
 
None daily. The only times I'll take meds is when my seasonal allergies flare up.
 
I just take my everyday vitamins and no medications, in fact, I never had to take any medications. A Part from the day that the Doc said I had to take one medication after surgery.
 
I don't take any medication daily except for my food supplements which I take once in a while. I unless one have a medical issue, you shouldn't be taking any drugs daily. It kills the system.
 
I do take daily medication, yes. With me suffering from Fibromyalgia I take Fluoxetine once a day and I take Amitriptyline once a night as well. I have been taking it for around 4 years nearly now but I feel I may have to speak with my doctor regarding it as I am still suffering from issues that should have subsided at least on the medication I have been taking.
