Dr has ask me start giving my mum her tablets for now on she been getting confused taking wrong tablets she has four different sort tablets take mostly morning lunch and night plus 4 steroids in morning just want know how long between each tablets in morning should I give her tablets
Hi @F1n,
Sorry to hear about your mum, looking at how Janice was a one point I know how easy it can be to start mixing up tablets.
In your position I might suggest asking a pharmacist - they are often really pleased to know that someone is interested enough to ask and this is a real focus of their training and expertise so I hope they will relish the chance to help. They will know too, often more than a doctor, what tablets play nicely together and others that are a bit more of a challenge to each other.
