Today it was supposed to be two in the morning, one before lunch, one before dinner, and two at bedtime. One pill a day gets subtracted for the next five days. Unless it's for the next six days. I haven't slept since about 11:30 yesterday morning, and my math skills weren't all that great to begin with.
Zoe: Don't think it's a good spot, sir. She still has the advantage over us. Mal: Everyone always does. That's what makes us special.

Spike's Bitches 36: Did I Sully Our Good Name?
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Yeah...that's a typical taper. Call and see if you can take it all at once. Or at least all before like 3pm. Tell them it made you have trouble sleeping.
Who prescribed this? Your regular doctor? ER?

Huh. I posted a reply to vw, but it appears not to have shown up. It was prescribed by the urgent care doctor, since my doctor was out of the office and I've been unthrilled with her PA.
eta: Gonna try the sleep thing again.

Push, Jess, Push! Come on, baby!
Get some sleep, libkitty, and let me know if you have any other questions.

Go, Jess, Go!
(alas, I must now depart to the land of no b.org. I will have to wait until this p.m. for updates.)

I was hoping to hear that Baby Alter had arrived - c'mon kid! we've got cable out here!
libkitty, IIRC, one of the things about grapefruit and certain medications is that it seems to increase the effect of the meds - but not predictably or consistently. I've got the issue with one of my meds - I think it's the Lisinopril - so I had to give up my morning grapefruit juice.

My understanding - and this is probably from Steph - is that grapefruit juice hinders metabolism of some meds. So instead of being metabolized it hangs around in your system, and over time can lead to an accidental overdose.
