Can i mix all these meds?!


Question: Can i mix all these meds!?
so im kinda iffy about mixing some medicines that im taking!.!.!.so if anyone could help me out id really appreciate it!.!.!.i know i could just go to CVS or something and talk to a pharmacist but im a really busy person!.!.!.these are the meds im taking/would like to take:

Yaz Birth Control -once a day
Prilosec 20 mg -once a day
Gelatin 10 grain - 2 capsules 3 times a day
Calcium (250 mg) Supplement with Vitamin D (125 IU)- 3 times a day
Cod Liver Oil- 1-2 times daily
Balanced B-100 Complex (TIMED RELEASE)-1-2 times daily
a Daily Vitamin once daily!.!.!.

I was thinking since the daily vitamin has some Vitamin D i could take that once a day and then the Calcium Supplement twice a day!.!.!.i dont think that these meds could hurt if i mix them but i just want to make damn sure i dont wind up taking to many vitamins or something weird like that!.!.!.so!.!.!.if you need any more info just ask me :D thanks in advanceWww@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Yes all these meds are safe to take together, and prilosec doesn't affect absorption of nutrients, its a proton pump inhibitor, which reduces the amount of stomach acid!.!.!. It should be taken 20 mins or so before a meal!.
and its good that you listed the vitamins and inquired about them!. Lots of people think that vitamins can't interact with Rx drugs, or that they aren't meds in themselves but this is not true!. Where do you think a lot of our drugs come from!.!.!. from natural sources!. For example lots of people with high cholesterol like to take red yeast rice thinking its healthier for them than statins!.!.!. but that is where the statins come from!. Vitamins and supplements can be just as likely to cause drug interactions as Rx drugs!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

First off, a healthy diet is a valid option no matter what job you have!. We are eating beans, chiles and cheese for the week as a family of three for less than your not so happy meals!. Sounds like the Prilosec is associated with your diet and could be eliminated!. I've only heard about Yaz on TV and am sympathetic for those in need of birth control!.

Other than that your supplementation appears reasonable!.

I do believe the less medicines taken, the better, especially those which come from the laboratory!.

Any more questions!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

Don't take the prilosec with anything else as it will stop the absorption of the rest of the vitamins and minerals AND birth control!.

Take the prilosec before your breakfast and the rest 2 hours after breakfast!.

you could save urself a lot of money and eat a healthy diet and then ud only need the yaz and the prilosecWww@Answer-Health@Com

yea its safe to take all of those together or throughout the dayWww@Answer-Health@Com

Except for the Yaz and the Prilosec, these aren't medications, they're nutrients!. However, most isolated vitamin-type nutrients like what you describe are highly processed and contain artificial ingredients!. You are better off eating whole, organic foods!. Unless you're allergic, you can eat pretty much any whole, organic foods you like, in sensible quantities!. If you do need to take an oil supplement, make sure it is fresh and organic, and not one of those cheap things you get at Costco which are mostly nutrient-free!. For calcium, eat whole dairy products (raw-milk cheese are fantastic) and green leafy vegetables!. Whole grains will give you B vitamins in their proper form!.

Eat good food and you won't have to take artificial supplements with unhealthy fillers and extra ingredients!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
