It is normal to be prescribed a large amount of different medications so near to having experienced a dangerous health issue that required hospitalization. Then, in the future, as your condition improves, you can slowly taper off of some of the medications to reduce the amount you are taking.

When I suffered full congestive heart failure, I was taking over 40 pills a day, when I was first released from the hospital, but as my blood pressure lowered, and the fluid in my body lessened, coupled with a healthy diet, and exercise, I was able to cut down gradually, with my doctor's approval. It did take awhile, and I had to be diligent, but now, I take two medications daily, one for blood pressure, and one for heart function.

Thus, it would be best to take the medications as directed by your doctor, for as long as they direct you to continue taking them.

The FDA warns that you may experience side effects, such as nausea, headache, dizziness, increased drowsiness, hypotension, increased urination, and dehydration.

Is there anything else I can help with?
