Hi,

I am prescribed a lot of medication by my doctor for the nerve damage - neurontin, and epilepsy - topamax - medication. They are supposed to be taken at different intervals and I have made sure to be as prompt as possible. So far I have been managing alriight though I feel very drowsy and tired. But how dangerous would it be to take them at wrong intervals or even together? I know its not recommended but thought it was an interesting thought

Hi @rickybobby

How are you today?

Are you curious about taking the medicines at different intervals to see it it makes you less drowsy and tired? I am sure if the doctor prescribed them a specific way it is for a reason. As always it is best to ask the doctor directly. However, maybe someone here has already done some experimenting under their doctor's direction that can give you a heads up on what they experienced. I'll tag a few people to see if that is something that someone has tried.

Are you regimented with your medications? Do you always follow exactly as prescribed? Or are you a little more relaxed with how you follow the instructions?

Tell us about your medication habits!
