Did you tell your doc you're taking medication at night? Mine told me take<br />
medication in the morning. I take them with food, and with lunch. It's the<br />
best I can do as I just don't feel well for 2 hours or more with the<br />
dosage. I don't take them all at once with food, but in between food on the<br />
top.<br />
<br />
I have fatigue effect sometimes.<br />
<br />
​And, I like wine. I take a drink on OFF meds days. Pharmacist told me no<br />
alcohol. I think within reason.​<br />

Mayo Clinic told me to take them all at night, with dinner for 2 of them and the E one before bed.
Just started yesterday,madding one pill each day.

Hoping and praying I can tolerate them

Hi Kay i was diagnose with mac at the beginning of july. So i have one month down. So far havent had a problem with the meds. Had a little diarrhea at first, that went away. Was told that i couldn't wear my contacts cause meds would turn them orange. That did not happen. Did go n get my eyes checked cause meds could possibly mess with eyes... i was told i would be on meds for a year, hoping n trusting that God says something different...
