Any one else feel like a rebel for taking your tablets in a different order?

Still in the same 5 min slot post breakfast, I should add, and aspirin last obviously.

My life is complete. 🤪

Ha, go you with the rebellion 😂. Why aspirin last though?

Because it dissolves in the glass of water. Logistics🤓

What.... all in one mouthful?

Oooo no, I couldn’t do that.

They might argue on the way down😀. That would be worse than using squash!

I take mine at 8am 6pm 8pm and 11pm.

I have an alarm on my phone which I often ignore and team Milkfairy shout

PILLS at me.

I think I am in denial. I would love to rebel 😉

I'm the same, they go down all at once twice a day then an alarm for the afternoon one because that's the one that can get forgotten

Ha! Rock and roll! 🤘I'm a down the hatch type too. Used to struggle to swallow a paracetamol but now swallow five or more tablets with a single glug. Claim to fame?!

In the morning all together, then the aspirin. One before evening meal, then all together again before bed

No i don't. But i used to constantly have to sort out the coffee, tea and sugar jars in the kitchen at work because other people wouldn't leave them in alphabetical order with the label at the front. Anarchists the lot of them
