Re: Medication ?

Since I am pregnant I take vitamins, low-dose aspirin and a vitamin D supplement every day in addition to a medication I take regularly when I'm not pg as well.

ETA- as for OTC meds- I rarely take any.
I actually skip my daily regimen more than I should because I just forget.
I could never be a good "pill popper" Chat Icon

I take synthroid daily after having thryroid treatment 14-15 years ago.

I don't take anything OTC regularly but use advil for headaches when needed.

I don't take anything on a regular basis. I only take meds if something is wrong (and it has to be moderately bad...like I won't take them if I have light cramps or a very mild cold or something).

Re: Medication ?

I only take medication when I'm sick and the doctor prescribes an antibiotic or something.

But I do take prenatal vitamins every day, and I'm not sure if those count.

Re: Medication ?

I don't take any pills daily. I do take inhaled asthma medication daily though I could probably do without it now and my doctor has discussed lowering my dosage or taking me off of it altogether.

ETA: I do take antibiotics when prescribed, but I would have to be VERY sick for that to happen. I don't take aspirin with any regularity either. If I take aspirin once a year, that's a lot.
