Well, thats weird.  My doctor told me to take my pill starting on the day i start my period.  Go to your doctor and just ask him to explain it again to you and make sure you clearly understand.  Dont have sex if you are not sure you're taking it right!

I was told this is safe to do, alternating every 2 hours.  (EG 10 am take advil, noon take tylenol, 2 pm take advil, etc.) And so you don't exceed the daily requirements of either.  However, vicodin is pretty high powered stuff, so I would make a quick call to your doctor or pharmacy about this first.

Medication should always be taken as prescribed or as recommended on the bottle.  Do not ever exceed the recommended dosage without clearance first from your doctor.  Many medicines taken in excess can cause more harm than good.\n\nIf your medication isn't working, see your doctor.  He can prescribe something more potent where you can follow the recommended dosage without any harm to yourself.

thats so not good, why would you do that? im sorry i just had to ask i think you defientley need to speak with whichever kind of doctor gave you those pills and they should have went over how to take them with you more thorougly. taking for at one time can be very damaging towards your body and mess you period up for a while. i think you need to get on the phone with them and find out what to do its there job to tell you how to use them, and your job to read the instructions. k-t and im sorry they went very thorough but atleast now you know

Birth control pills must be taken each day at about the same time to be effective and prevent pregnancy. The best time to take them is at night, before you go to bed

There is ABSOLUTELY nothing wrong with taking ANY medication that you need.  If they can't understand that...get new friends.

Hi Brian,\n\nMy name is Sarah and I have a degree in psychology, keep in mind that I am not a doctor however.  \n\nAnyway, I think what you are going through is very common.  The first question that I'm wondering is why your doctor switched your medication?  I know that you said that you cannot remember but it might help you to ask.  Also, it's good that you know that taking that amount of pills is not a good idea.  Have you told anyone else about this?  A friend or family member?  My advice would be to tell someone (or just let them read your post) and have them go to the doctor with you on your next appointment and that way the truth will come out.  You should really let someone know about this before it's too late.  \n\nAs far as battling your ADHD, I do not think that medication alone works in most cases.  You should also seek counseling.  The two coupled together have a very high success rate as opposed to one in absence of the other.  It's just like depression, you can treat it with medication but there is still an underlying problem that contributes to it and until that problem is solved it will continue to come back.  \n\nYou seem to have a good head on your shoulders and I hope that you will seek help in others that are close to you.  Good luck. :)

Mixing anti depression meds is never a good idea.  Make sure it's okay with your doctor before you take Welbutrin and Lexapro.  Lexapro is a good drug though, just don't mix it with other good drugs ;)

See a doctor.  And this time, take the antibiotics he/she gives you...ALL OF THEM....JUST THE WAY YOU'RE TOLD TO TAKE THEM!
