What kind of drugs do DU people have?

[CanuckAmok]

Empty your pockets.

[purr]

1. Xanax! Thats it..

[bigwillq]

2. I have generic Xanax

in my bag. Haven't taken one in awhile.

[Radio_Lady]

76. It's a pretty good drug. Got me to the hospital before my recent

operative procedure. They they floated me away with Versed. I don't remember anything, really. The whole day was pretty much blanked out.

[Maestro]

3. Could you send me some?

The last three weeks before Christmas break at school is craaaaaazy!

[Bzzzz]

70. Meridia, oxy. xanax...

nothing good...

[Radio_Lady]

74. Vicodin (unused), Lipitor, Prilosec, Atenolol, HCTZ and I can't remember

any others.

Lots of vitamins.

I'll have to check my email for today's offers (isn't that spam stuff disgusting?).

[Tallison]

102. Purr, this is your 3rd Xanax post/24 hours

:rofl:

May I suggest some Klonopin to spice things up a little?

[LaurenG]

4. Only lint

nothing. Wait some vitamins and an allergy pill oh and an m&m.:shrug:

[skygazer]

5. I have some Vicodin

Some Klonopin and a couple of Tylenol 3's. Frova (for migraines) and Relafen (for arthritis). Oh, and a big bag of :smoke:

[maveric]

Weed and Vicodin.

Vrooom Vrooom! Love Captain "V"!

[skygazer]

7. maveric, are you a long lost relative or something?

You've posted my thoughts on a number of occasions - now it seems we even have the same drugs! :silly:

[maveric]

11. I have back problems (lumbar),arthritic knees and a partial amputation

to my left hand, that gives me a 27/7 dose of pain. I'd like to kick the Vikes but it seems to do the trick.
As for the 420...well lets just say that I've been a stoner since 1970.
Love it!
Were we seperated at birth?
I was born in 1956, Lawrence MA.

[skygazer]

12. Hmmmm....

1961, Bennington, Vermont. New Englanders. We must just think alike. ;) Though we have similar health issues too - lower back, knee arthritis. LOL No amputations but I'm thinking of having my left leg taken off above the bum knee and becoming a pirate...

edited to add - and we both ended up in California! Cue the Twilight Zone music...

[terrya]

6. Lip Balm

That's it. :-)

[Rhiannon12866]

100. According to my friend, that stuff can be addictive.

And I'm not kidding!:evilgrin:

[khashka]

8. Right now at this moment?

Fairly heavy opiates because of the unrelenting pain of my disability. (Which is why I'm sometimes a little weird.)

Smoke pot occassionally. Usually after a hot and heavy date and we're about to get down to do the nasty.

Most of my serious boyfriends have been speedfreaks, so I've done more than my share of crank.

But right now, totally clean. Nothing that's not prescription.

Khash. (500 mikes of acid sounds good though, got any?)

[El Fuego]

9. I've got a Percocet stash

[Rhiannon12866]

97. That IS good stuff!!! I was given that after surgery.

And it was more than worth the creatures I saw crouching in the corners... And when my cousin had her appendix out, I asked her to pass on any that she didn't use.:evilgrin:

[Dude_CalmDown]

10. Weed, Corona, My mom's candied yams - only addicted to the yams. - n/t

.

[unsavedtrash]

[meow2u3]

14. Beer

:beer: :beer: :beer:

[Amaya]

nothing else... :(

[DainBramaged]

16. OK got everything in front of me

Kirkland 81mg Aspirin

Col Rite Stool Softener

Aleve

Tylenol 8 hour

Pepcid Complete

Sorry, you can get boring when you get older. And stop going to dance clubs. And get weird looks when you want to buy anything that could stop your heart like a dump truck with bad brakes hitting that bridge abutment up there.

[Jamastiene]

17. Just my high blood pressure medicine (HCTZ with triamtrene),

Zoloft, and my Eckerd Brand PM (little blue caplets) pain reliever meds. I haven't had any really good drugs in a long long time. :shurg: Sorry.

[Hyernel]

18. Stacker 3

Helps with work...and at the gym

[richmwill]

19. None. "Clean" for two years...

...And quite proud of it.

[bigwillq]

22. Good for you!

Congrats!
:hi:

[PDittie]

20. Glipizide, Metformin, Triamterene

The first two are for diabetes, the last one's a a diuretic (for Meneire's syndrome).

[Floogeldy]

21. Pepcid AC

That's about it.

[liberaltrucker]

23. Effexor XR

150 mg/day. Plus caffeine, nicotine, and the occasional belt.

[Maestro]

24. Gawd!

Effexor turned me into a Zombie. I'm on Lexapro now. Hope it is working for you.

[liberaltrucker]

26. Works fine

Had to take a few days off at first, but once the side effects wore off, all was well.

[Maestro]

43. I guess my body chemistry just didn't do well with Effexor

but I am glad it works for you. :hi:

[HeeBGBz]

79. I had to wean myself off of Lexapro

Made me sleep too much and gain weight.

[Ladyhawk]

87. Lexapro withdrawals are nasty. :( n/t

[HeeBGBz]

92. Yeah, I'm glad I did it though.

I feel much better.

[NNadir]

25. Ambien.

I'm a chronic insomniac.

[liberaltrucker]

27. Glad it works for you

Like a hit of acid for me:scared:

[NNadir]

31. It is habit forming, but it generally works for me.

Not always though.

I confessed to my doctor that I was concerned about the habit. He however more or less said it was no big deal. The fact of the matter he said, is that I don't sleep much, and that there was no reason to be "catholic" about it.

Those are his exact words. I think I'll take an Ambien now. It's getting late.

[liberaltrucker]

36. Sorry about any misunderstanding

Ambien make me "see things". Took it once on Doc's advise. Halcion is best for me when I can't sleep.

[Sparkly]

37. I took that for awhile, Dr. said it's NOT habit-forming, but

you can get habituated so that it doesn't work anymore.

However, I felt like it was habit-forming at least psychologically. I'd take a half of a tablet and it worked. Then I took a half of a half of a tablet, and that worked. Then I felt I couldn't sleep unless I took a half of a half of a half, and the doctor told me with that amount, it was completely psychological -- it wasn't enough to do anything. So I was sleeping on my own anyway.

[NNadir]

42. There is nothing psychological about it for me.

However I have always been an insomniac.

There are two kinds of insomniacs: Those for whom sleep doesn't matter and those who cannot sleep but feel that they need sleep.

I am unfortunately in the second category.

Once when I decided to kick Ambien, I stayed awake for 3 days. Eventually I fell asleep, but I was in an awful state.

In my youth, before Ambien was invented, I once drove solo from Las Vegas, Nevada to Long Island, New York without sleeping, a trek that took well over 4 days. I stopped to try to sleep on the way, but didn't manage it. I wasn't using any drugs whatsoever other than coffee.

[bigwillq]

32. My friend took 12 and DUH!

ODed. How sad. He made it but he's now in rehab. I hope he stays clean this time.

[NNadir]

38. That's horrible.

I had a housemate that attempted suicide with Thorazine.

We saved his life, but he killed himself anyway, this time by jumping off a bridge.

He was a schizophrenic. When he was sane he was one of the nicest guys in the world, funny, smart and talented.

It was more than thirty years ago, but it is still very, very sad.

[XemaSab]

28. Vicodin (aforementioned kidney injury)

Elavil (insomnia)

Singulair (asthma)

Theophylline (asthma)

Alupent (asthma)

:D

On edit: (note well that the theophylline and the elavil are equal and opposite waves)

[NMMNG]

29. Topamax, Trazodone, Vicodin, Percocet, Synthroid, Imitrex, Amerge, Relpax,

Flexaril, Verapamil

[liberaltrucker]

33. Damn, you're a walking pharmacy

Just kidding. :)

[NMMNG]

34. Polypharmacy is my life

And those are just the prescribed drugs....

[liberaltrucker]

40. We do what we must

when our bodies are't what they used to be. As Mick Jagger once said: "What a drag it is getting old". Not that we are, you understand:hippie:

[NMMNG]

41. Indeed. My philosophy : "avoid it if you can, but use it if you need it"

[liberaltrucker]

57. Hear, hear

I avoided my problem for years until I married a nurse. She dragged me kicking and screaming to the Doc. After much trial and error, voila, Effexor. I'm, well, me again:woohoo:

[NMMNG]

60. I'm glad you're doing better

Sometimes a little help is all it takes. :thumbsup:

[MadAsHellNewYorker]

30. pot

:smoke:

[swimboy]

81. Hello, my bruthah.

B-)

[WritingIsMyReligion]

35. Nada

Don't even take a vitamin.

[Allenberg]

39. Celexa

with the occasional Tylenol III chaser.

[u4ic]

44. Imovane and tryptophan

both are for a sleep disorder.

[texanwitch]

45. I have half a bottle of Hydrocodone, left over from the dentist.

This babies had a kick.

[Liberal Veteran]

46. AZT, Epivir, Sustiva, tenofovir, emtricitabine, buproprion...and

soon oxandrin.

[NNadir]

49. Hey man, I'm sorry about that.

How long have you been positive?

[Liberal Veteran]

50. Going on 20 years.....

It's all good. I've only been on meds for 6 years and my numbers have been pretty good for the most part (except the first one which pretty much said my immune system was somewhere between piss poor and non-existant).

[NNadir]

51. Well hang in there man.

If you have problems down the road with Resistance, you can go to Fuzeon. It has a completely different mechanism than the others. It's injectable, and that's a bummer from what I've heard, but it works. You can minimize resistance, as I'm sure you know, by being pretty faithful to your dosing.

May your good response continue.

[sundog]

47. wine

and weed when the need calls

i generally hate meds

[Liberal Veteran]

48. God, the last time I smoked weed....

....I got a call for an interview the next day after six months of job hunting and they had pre-employment screening.

I ended up at the testing site with a small shampoo bottle wrapped in hand warmers full of someone else's clean sample hidden in my crotch.

What a nightmare.

[jobycom]

52. Someone laced my coke with caffeine, sugar and tiny bubbles.

Makes me see things. Today I imagined watching about ten hours of James Bond films while bouncing on my couch. Now I understand Tom Cruise.

[SofaKingLiberal]

53. Hmmmm, let's see......

The kind that makes me hungry.


The kind that makes me dance.


And the kind that makes me see pink elephants.


Don't forget kids....

[ChavezSpeakstheTruth]

54. Kuhwayloods!

:D



asthmaticeog

[Deja Q]

55. Strattera and Lamictal... beware.

Beware of strattera. It gave me a temporary boost in metabolism AND appetite suppression. I've lost 30+ pounds over the last 6 months, and given how I can barely run without feeling like I've sprained an ankle or walk a short distance without my knees recoiling in pain, I've lost more than just fatty tissue.

I've only just started Lamictal for depression (though a similar mood stabilizer helped me far more than any actual antidepressant ever could). Unfortunately, Lamictal also has appetite suppression as a side-effect.

Time will tell. I may as well play along; they have a point. :)

[Crazy Guggenheim]

56. I took Strattera for a while and went back to Concerta.

[Blue_In_AK]

58. Are you talking the legal kind?

Synthroid and Restasis.

[NMMNG]

59. And what if he's *not* talking about the legal kind

;-)

[Blue_In_AK]

61. Well, you can't be too careful, you know

I got one of those e-mails from the CIA the other day. ;) Looking up thread, it looks like YOU'RE the one with the good stuff. I love that Vicodin.

[NMMNG]

63. Don't forget the Percocet ;-)

What can I say? Intractable migraines, severe dysmenorrhea, etc.

[Blue_In_AK]

64. Oh, I'm sorry...

It'd be a lot better if you had those pills just for fun. :evilgrin:

[NMMNG]

66. Unfortunately doctors don't hand them out for that

Except to Rush Limpballs and other rich SOB's who can doctor-shop or othwise wheedle prescriptions for phony ailments. Anyway, I don't want to end up addicted--I have enough problems.

[judaspriestess]

62. some kind of zanex wannabes from argentina

hell they were $7 dollars for 30. and pretty damn good
$100 bucks sure bought a whole bunch

[DanCa]

65. I am on scripts like Elvis . So technically I am not on drugs

I got miraprex 1.5 3 times per day for my parkinsons
Zoloff 200 mg for my anxiety
1oo mg topomax for my ocd
Centrum one a day
and pro vigil to keep me up

[ironflange]

67. Hoo boy, here we go

Son: Paxil, Trazodone occasionally
Daughter (bipolar): Celexa, Risperdal, generic Tegritol
Mrs Ironflange: Paxil, also Trazodone now and then
Me: Effexor XR, Lipitor, Altace, NPH insulin (I win)

This doesn't include vitamins, baby aspirin, stuff like that.

We are on a first-name basis with the neighborhood pharmacists. Good thing we're on a plan.

[William Bloode]

68. Lets see here......

18 xanax, 12 valiums, 24 percocet, 10 oxy 20's, 6gms raw opium, 23 gms mushrooms,11 ceramonial peyote buttons, 5lbs of prime herb, and i am pretty sure i got about 1.8gms of coke stashed to.

[Starlight]

69. Midol

[MarsThe Cat]

71. methadone, flexeril, prednisone, ambien, sulfasalizine, welbutrin, 222's-

and pot.

btw- the methadone is for chronic pain, not heroin addiction...i used to take oxycontin, but my dr. switched me over when i lost my insurance.

[Err]

72. Strattera and Zoloft.

Was on Adderall earlier this summer.

[Mutley]

73. Let's see.... extra strength tylenol, sudefed, and antibiotics from

about five years ago (think it might be time to throw that out? :D ).

[LeftyMom]

75. I think I'm going to take some ibuprofen

my back hurts. I have muscle relaxers but they'll put me to sleep. :(

[sakabatou]

77. Zoloft... Naproxen...

generic crap...

[flvegan]

78. Ephedra...

A huge stash. Thanks for nothing, FDfuckingA.

[HeeBGBz]

80. Amoxicillin, tylenol/cod 3, a little bit of granny's medicinal herb

Spent 3 hours in the doctor's office today for bronchitis.

[Trigger Hippie]

82. Sadly, none.

I miss my weed, though. :(

[scarlet_owl]

83. Abilify and Lexapro.

[tyedyeto]

84. An assortment of alcohol left over from our...

Turkey Day get together.

Ibuprofen

S/O has a couple of prescibed meds, too.

[Lavender Brown]

85. Just allergy stuff

:shrug:

[Ladyhawk]

86. Neurontin, Actos, Ortho-Tricyclen, Klonopin, Strattera, Lexapro, Flexeril.

I used to be on pain killers, too, but I'm weaning myself off some of this stuff. :shrug: BTW, there are multiple uses for various prescriptions, so draw whatever conclusions you'd like. :D

[tenshi816]

88. Aleve and naproxen. And sinus medicine.

[LynneSin]

89. I just took my vitamins

Lunchtime Vitamins include:

Flaxseed Oil
Alpha-LInoic Oil
Calcium/Magnesium/Zinc
Multi-Vitamin
CholesAID (It's a Vitamin Shoppe Suppliment that is suppose to help lower Cholesterol - I'm on the verge of going over the top)
VeggiePhyte (I'm trying to eat more veggies but yes, I take a suppliment)
Yeast Fend (It not only contains the good Bacteria but suppliments that help fend off the bad yeast)

[Lochloosa]

90. I'll never tell

[OzarkDem]

91. Fosamax, vitamins, paxil

and the occasional OTC sinus medicine. Menopause sucks!

[Monkey see Monkey Do]

93. Quetiapine & Sodium Valporate (I don't know what the US brand names are)

[Tallison]

105. Seroquel and Depakote

in the US. :hi:

[noonwitch]

94. Ibuprofin

Thank God it's available over the counter. I remember having to get prescriptions for Motrin when I was in college.

[mcscajun]

95. Right now...Amoxicillin, Tylenol with Codeine, Tylenol Extra-Strength

Levoxyl (for thyroid)
Benicar HCT (for hypertension)

All Hail Advanced Middle Age!

[Rhiannon12866]

99. I was given Tylenol with codeine after surgery.

My doctor eventually changed it to straight codeine and put me on a liver detoxifier, since he said it was the Tylenol he was worried about. It can cause liver problems when taken for too long...:-(

[mcscajun]

101. Yuck. Well, I'm not taking any pain meds any more, thank goodness.

My constant philosophy with medications is to take them Only when the situation Absolutely cannot be borne, otherwise.

I allow my immune system to handle much of its own affairs, and it's the stronger for it.

But ya' gotta love when they give you pain meds, and then tell you NOT to take 'em "unless needed". Um...didn't you think I needed them and that's WHY you gave 'em to me??? Um, um, um. :)

[Rhiannon12866]

103. These days, I don't even take over-the-counter painkillers.

But I was grateful to have them, when I needed them. And you're absolutely right. I recently found a tiny envelope of mystery pills in my purse. I finally remembered that the dentist gave them to me, ages ago, if I needed them for pain. And I totally forgot about them, until now.:-)

[Rhiannon12866]

96. Pet meds of every possible description.

When my vet prescribes something new for one of my guys, it's likely that I already have it...*sigh*:shrug:

[Burma Jones]

98. Zocor, Aspirin, Tums

and well stocked liquor cabinet and wine "cellar"

[RebelOne]

104. None. Gave up the illegal stuff years ago.

Only drugs I have now are blood pressure pills and vitamins.

[indigo32]

106. currently

only Augmentin for an ear infection
