Absolutely. I’m what you call a treatment and drug resistant patient who has been a lab rat for just about every single medication you can imagine. For the last 18 years I’ve been on Alprazolam (Xanax) 2mg 4 times daily (10mg in all) Dextroamphetamine/amphetamine quad salts (Adderall IR) 30mg tablets twice daily with an additional dose of Desoxyn (methamphetamine hcl) 5-10mg as needed and take buprenorphine hcl plus a 5 daily dose of Oxycodone (Endocet) 7.5/309. I only need the first two medications however my physician literally threatened to cut me off completely from taking the FDA recommended treatment that if I tried to stop without his consent he would cut me off everything and as you can plainly see, besides constulouse for the damage the buprenorphine caused to my duodenum. So of course I’m on two schedule II medications, a schedule III and a schedule IV medication regime.
Absolutely zero side effects, and have even been able to succeed in life because of these very well known and extremely efficacious medications. The way the government is trying to increase overall mortality rates while doing nothing about the actual “crisis” and let’s not forget the make believe “drug shortage” population control and massive income for physicians and clinics who administer an MAT drug. I could go on but I’ll stay on topic. Please be extremely cautious and educated about a lot of the medications that I see you’re taking as they’re every bit as life threatening and dangerous than most controlled substances. I used to talking long and in depth on Quora where I can explain without accidentally not complying with the community guidelines.

I may be drug resistant because while this combo is helping I still get daily depression, it just doesn't last as long. Thank you for your response.

I'm on Gabapentin, Klonopin, Buspar and Lexapro for anxiety. I also take levothyroxine, and Phenytoin. I'd like to get off of Gabapentin or Klonopin. I don't know which is worse for you.

We take almost the same, I've been having a lot of the side effects but it's much worse to come off my medicines. Thank your for your response.

Hi, Monacat!
Vraylar, Wellbutrin, BuSpar, and Lamictal are my psych meds. Then there are 5 more for hypothyroidism and hypertension.
So, lots and lots but I feel great!
Just for the record, all my meds are generics

Thank you for your response, I am glad to know that someone else is taking the same amount that I am. I just feel like I'm taking so much but I've tried to come off medicines before and I wasn't able to do it.
