Yep. 20mg Omeprazole every day. Got really bad acid indigestion. I can get away without taking it if I cut out pretty much everything except plain bread and water. Alcohol, spice, vegetables, fruit, red meat all set acid indigestion off to the point of severe pain and acid reflux without tablets.

This. Although I have run out and have had to resort to OTC Ranitidine until my prescription gets processed again. My mothers side of the family have passed on their digestive problems down through their otherwise amazing Scottish genes.

I have just weaned myself off the anti-depressants I was on for cyclothymia as I'd been through all of them with varying degrees of success. I'm using Jedi mind-tricks to keep myself positive. Been more than fine for the last few months!
 
Steroid based allergy stuff for 9 months of the year as a minimum. Although as winter was mild I haven't stopped taking it since march last year.

Add to that a rotating cocktail of pain meds for knee, shoulder and ankle injuries. Currently sitting here with a hot wheat bag on my shoulder tries to ease it a bit more.
 
Amlopodine and Ramipril for blood pressure, Esomeprazole for acid (never feel much actual burn but get bad pains in chest and arms) and Topiramate for for migraine control (very effective for, very rarely have a full aura spectactular head burster needing other meds to stop it).

I would rather be on nothing but it is a work in (slow) progress.
 
Cetirizine For hayfever during the main season in which grass pollen is bad during June mainly. Aside from that and typical vitamins, nothing else.
 
2 x 500mg of Pentasa mesalazinum tablets daily, for Ulcerative Colitis since 11 years old, now 26.

Nothing else (thankfully) except for hayfever 'over the counter' meds for a month or so out of the year.
 
Until not too long ago I was taking daily medication for chronic migraines. Have now tried to move away from it and only take it in periods where I know I might have issues. Don't want to be doing them daily for the rest of my life.

100mg of sertraline daily.

Big help for anxiety and depressive tendencies. I would really like to not be on it but I tried to come off it before and it was pretty ****.
 
Can't believe how many people are medicated! Some of you poor buggers must rattle when you walk.
 
I take antihistamine pretty much every morning for a dust mite allergy. Just ordered a 6 month supply from Amazon. There is the odd day I don't need to take one but those days are becoming increasingly rare :(
