Some.

Some pramipexole (mirapex, a dopamine agonist), tizanidine (muscle relaxer, related to clonidine), some clonidine itself. Gabapentin,
put on a couple of scopolamine transdermal patches, a few caps of oxycodone, a couple of cyclizine pills and some buscopan, for nausea as I threw up earlier and some chlormethiazole, couple of morphine shots. I rather fancy some more, but propionyl-H appeals more atm. There is another candidate molecule that I've been meaning to try. That being dibenzoyhatlmorphine. As well as the mixed 3,6-propionylbenzoyl morphine, and of course any route to to an asymmetric diester of morphine is going to result in a pair of positional isomers, 3-propionyl-6-benzoylmorphine, and 3-benzoyl-6-propionylmorphine. Both of which I have never tried, nor yet have I tried 3,6-dibenzoylmorphine.

Lestat - I'm having a bit of a struggle making The PR a bit more responsible.  You know:  taking the meds I leave out for her, combing her hair twice a day, wearing a bra when outside, eating, etc.  Long story, but I am seeing some improvement, although slowly.

Just taken night meds.

Lestat, thanks for that info about moclobemide. :plus:
It is one of the more interesting meds I have taken. About stimulants - did you mean I shouldn't take them?

I take:
Dexamphetamine
Benztropine
Lithium
Haloperidol
Moclobemide
And a calcium + vitamin D supplement.
Would appreciate your input on these if you have time.

morning stuff accomplished though i am still tweaking the supplements.
working on the caffeine as we speak.
more people would be compliant with meds if the medication was apple pie, which i am having with the tea

  Just did.  The new L-Lysines are easier to swallow, perhaps better coated.  :thumbup:

Only had the antibiotics. Oh, and painkillers, but they are not part of the daily routine.

  I may take an ibuprofen soon, having middle-aged aches and pains.  :nerdy:

Most of them.

Didn't take all the daily dose of gabapentin, but I often don't, I tend to use it now and then when the neuropathic pain caused by the nerve damage down my leg left by a failed knee op flares up, its usually not intolerable,  especially taking opiates for the fucked up knee/tendonitis and bilateral trochanteric bursitis, neuropathic pain doesn't respond well to  standard painkillers but it isn't, to me from my knee op at leasrt
but it isn't utterly impervious to 100% of their effects, they just don't do very well at treating it. But if they are to be taken anyway, I may as well regard that relief as a free bonus, killing two birds with one stone.

Nor did I bother taking the proton pump inhibitor, or the transdermal and oral scopolamine, didn't take either. Nor the fexofenadone (ultralong duration nonsedating antihistamine)

And a bit shit really.o
