Mint.

[soquili-gitli.livejournal.com]

So, yeah. My Spiro tastes like mint. I know that someone else commented about this earlier, but I can't easily find it. I remember this being common?

Some background for the next question:

I have problems with remembering to do things. Specifically, doing exercise. And now that I've started on Spiro, I really need to get off my butt and do this. So, the policing practice we'd (my boyfriend and I) worked out was that if I didn't do my exercises for two days in a row, that I'd have my meds taken away for a week until I could get my act together.

But now, I read, on the bottle "IMPORTANT: TAKE OR USE EXACTLY AS DIRECTED. DO NOT DISCONTINUE OR SKIP DOSES UNLESS DIRECTED BY YOUR DOCTOR". So..anyone have any input on this?

I'll be calling my Doc on monday to find out his opinion, but he's been so..wonderfully useful for other things that I don't expect much. (He basically told me that it's utter bullshit about potassium levels affecting leg cramps when I asked him directly)

You folks would probably know best, so..
