    How much medicine is too much,
    My husband is on 9 different medicines, 3 different blood pressure meds, three different diabetic meds, two blood thinners, and one stomach pills for acid reflux.

    He has two different Doctors that are changing his meds too frequently, I am worried sick about him. What can I possibilt do to help him??

    Are each of the doctors being informed of the medications being prescribed by the other doctors... they usually ask for this before appointments... but they rely on being given accurate and truthful information.

    What I think helps coordinate best is have one pharmacist and ask them to keep tabs on the combinations and dosages. They seem to be more well informed.

    Are the doctors, each treating the same thing, or different.

    Should not be seeing two doctors for same issue ?
