Yeah, well, you may know what they're for, I'm not altogether sure I do... but I take frusemide... that's for the heart, to sort of relieve my water. Lisinipril, I think that's for the heart; isosorbide mononitrate - I've got no idea what that's for. Thyroxine - two lots of that thyroxine, that would be for the thyroid. Glibenclamide, that's for the [diabetes]. Amiodarone - I don't know what that's for - got no idea these days...amiodarone... Then I take an aspirin, and then at night cimetidine for the stomach ulcer.
Ok and what do you take in the day for your diabetes?
Well the glibenclamide wouldn't it? I take two of those in the morning and two at lunchtime.
Do you know off hand how many pills that is in a day you're taking?
I can tell you [laughs]... 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10,11... and at lunchtime three, and at night one, so that's 15 isn't it? [laughs].
Quite a lot to remember isn't it?
Well that's why they're written down isn't it? I, I can remember. |
