No, I'm pretty sure I can rattle them off. My daily drug list... I take aspirin 175mg, no sorry 150mg of aspirin a day, atenolol 50mg, spironolactone 25mg.
Oh there's a funny one spironolactone, it has a very obscure side effect to the point that I actually went to my doctor with what I thought was a totally independent ailment to my condition. I developed a very sore right breast, very sore, and I went to the doctor because I just couldn't believe how painful it was or why it was so painful and why it was swollen, but one of the side-effects of spironolactone is that it causes breast enlargement. Unfortunately it's not bilateral not uniform, just the one so that's quite embarrassing and it's incredibly painful. Having said that it did stop and then started on the left-hand side and that became very sore, so they cut my spironolactone from 50mg down to 25mg and touch wood it's seemed to have eased off, but that's certainly a side effect and quite a painful one to boot.
So aspirin, spironolactone, atenolol, nicorandil 60mg a day, isosorbide mononitrate... 120mg a day, frusemide 160mg a day... there is another one and I'm struggling to think what it is... no its my cholesterol tablet which I take of an evening, the name slips my memory, like I say it's a terrible memory! I think that's most of them, I don't think I've forgotten the others, I possibly have, but I can always get my list out and tell you. |
