I'm still taking the round ones but they upped my dose by 50mg and that's when they turned into trapezoids.

I hate to post here, but I don't take medication. I came close a few times to developing depression, but it didn't really happen. All the major distress and discontent with my former stepfather has been gone ever since he left. Plus, I'm trying to think positive about friendships.

However, I've been on heavy medication before. For one thing, when I had seizures, which gave AS in the first place, I was on all kinds of medication. Plus, I was on some medication when I had my last ear infection. Finally, when I got my wisdom teeth pulled, I had to take Vicodin for a few weeks.

My brothers take Aterol due to their ADHD. My mom used to take depression medications including Zoloft for many years because of her assumed bipolar. However, recently, she was officially diagnosed with ADD instead and was put on Aterol just like my brothers. She was taking placebos for years and never knew.

Who do they expect to swallow that, Sea Biscuit? 8O

I take anti-depressants, also and I always ask the pharmacist to give me my meds in capsule form if it's available.

I took DXM today and it got me itchy so I started scratching everywhere, and it gave me a rash, and I freaked out because I thought I had Steven-Johnson's Syndrome, which is rare but can happen if I take Lamictal.

Wow, I've never seen tablets shaped like that. Looks like it would hurt your throat on the way down.

Dexamphetamine are the hardest for me to take. Even though they are small, they stick to my tongue which is bad because they taste terrible.
