Question about taking meds..

Hi all,
So a few months ago I didn;t take any pills.. now look at me LOL
Im the morning I take a vitamin, klonopin and now amoxiilian(sp)and my nasal spray (nasonex).
My question is.. can I take all these at once when I get up or do I have to space it out?

Oh yeah I am also upping my klonopin to 3x a day. 1/2 a .5 pill. Hopefully it'll only be that way for a few days until I feel better.

Thanks,
Heather

I usually space my pills out but not by much. I take 3 sets of pills in the morning about 15min apart. That's just what I do. Talk to your dr if you're not sure.

Heather, i dont know about the particular medications that you're taking, but my guess is its alright to take them all at the same time. probably the most important thing is to take them at the same time everyday, so that the medication is always evenly circulating in your system...probably taking them all at once makes it easier to remember.

Thanks for your input, Mia. ITA! Alot of folks here on the board have reported feeling anxious when they forget their meds or even miss doses. Getting a schedule going will prevent that from happening & following the schedule will keep the drug level maintained. jan
