If you’re 50s and up, how many meds are you on?

Anonymous
52 and I think I take about 10 medications orally, have several topical things as well and several supplements my doctors want me on. I have 5 autoimmune diagnoses. It totally sucks to be in the situation I’m in.

If you’d asked me at 52, I would have said zero. Then I ended up on Aygestin for heavy perimenopausal bleeding. 3 years later I am starting a statin and BP meds. I never had any health issues and now I feel like I’m falling apart.

I'm 60, no meds. My Mom is 81 and also not on any meds. She just had a physical, and all her test results were great.
