An analgesic at midday because my Tietze is being a huge bitch lately
An antiacid for reflux

Depends on the day, and not counting current temporary therapy, I'm taking at least one (blood pressure), usually two (BP + gastric), and if I have a migraine, painkiller or migraine medication depending on the severity, plus a Vitamin D supplement I take once a week which due to sun allergy.
I also take non-pill medication, which is why I selected 3-6.

Two multivitamin gummies in the morning; one Vitamin D capsule, two L-Lysine capsules, and a beta blocker tablet at night.
I take two pills daily: one antidepressant and one mood stabilizer. Lately it's been four every few days, since I added the allergy medicine.
I totally agree, but subconsciously I haven't completely overcome the thought of myself being a 'weaker' person for having to resort to pills (specifically antidepressants) to maintain sanity, when most other people manage to do it 'the natural way'.
It sucks thinking like this, but I've become much more accustomed to taking antidepressants ever since I started a few years ago, so it does give me some hope of changing my way of thinking.

Just my Omega 3s, so 4.
And if I risk running in to a dog of some kind I take my pill for allergy.

Melatonin 5mg around 7pm before I wind down for bed along with an antihistamine to help with my allergies and knock me out.
I also take maybe 3 Ibuprofen per week to help with my foot pain from jogging with flat feet.
So altogether nothing too bad.

2 for anxiety. Though I'm hoping to wean off them soon, since they aren't without their negative side-effects.
Hydroxychloroquine x2 daily
Prednisone x2 daily
Luflunimide
Potassium
Plus tons of ibuprofen and the occasional bulbuca
I stopped taking my anxiety meds cause fuck it

Metoprolol, baby Aspirin and a daily vitamin in the morning and then Warfarin before bed. Yay for having a mechanical mitral valve.
2x 2500 IU (62.5mcg) vitamin D
1x K-Right (K1(500mcg)+Mk-4(1500mcg)+Mk-7(180mcg)+D3 (50mcg)
some zinc, anti-oxidants
2/day Body Protective Complex+ (BPC-157 derivative)
5g L-glutamine
It's a self imposed maintenance plan to keep my body as healed as possible post Crohn's remission circa 1 year ago. I'm not on biologics, the only one ever I took was about 1 month of steroids post diagnosis to get my inflammation quickly under control.
Last year I was taking several amino acids to help with my recovery, based on this paper: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5622680/ - 2 months on those. Twice the amnt of glutamine, same amount of bpc, more zinc, more multivitamins, more k, less vitamin D as well. Some magnesium (under a tsp), but too much will fuck up your stomach for a few hours. I'm not dead/my kidneys aren't dead, so I must be doing something right (also, eating very clean). Supplementation only helped though, the real MVP was 2 months of about 20-30 FMTs. Glad I got that over with before fucking COVID.

I'm 55. As we age it's harder to get what you need from food, and as I'm in a higher risk age group for Covid I'm helping out my immune system every way I can.

I started taking it almost two months ago for UC..basically just to help anti-bodies from growing on another drug I take. Low dosage Only 50mg a day. Since I've started it, I feel worse. Aches and pains all over
*points*
That can be a side effect. Maybe ask your doctor? I take 125mg and don't get aches and pains. I did get aches and pains from prednisone I took beforehand and they completely stopped once I stopped taking it.

These results are intresting and suprising. I expected more people to be medicated. As someone who has had serve depression and anxiety I wouldn't know what to do without my regiment
I just got down to 12 not including allergy, pain, and vitamin pills. I used to be at 37 a day so this is a massive improvement.
Quite a few,, that's all I'll say. Raging from hormones to anti-anxiety meds to stuff I need for survival.
