I am on several myself and I know what you mean. When I take all the stuff I need to take it looks like soooo much![/take 4 meds & it seems like a lot. But I have been on them for about a year & really don't notice much any more. I am grateful for these meds because they work. I spent 12-18 months getting on the right combination, so if your meds work, stick with it. I think one way people end up on more meds is sometimes drugs stop working as well & have to be increased or changed or another added to keep you well. And before you know it you have gone from 1-2 meds to 4-5 meds. This may happen over 10 to 15 years also. quote]
