Tablet recommendations? Help!

So my grandad’s dealing with diabetes, and he just had heart surgery about a month ago—they put in a pacemaker because his valves were acting up and clogging. He finally got his meds today, which wouldn't be such a headache if it wasn't for the fact that he's gotta swallow 15 pills a day. That's 6 in the morning, 3 in the afternoon, and another 6 at night. Is that even safe??? Feels like you'd overdose just trying to get through the day...

He finally got his new medication regimen today, and honestly, I don't know how anyone handles this. He’s looking at 15 pills a day: 6 in the morning, 3 in the afternoon, and another 6 in the evening. Is that even remotely healthy? If I had to swallow that many pills, I feel like I’d be overdosing just by trying to keep up with it...

You'd probably drop dead if you took all those, but for him, they're life-saving.
I really don't see the point of this whole thread...☕

briskjackal8 said:It’s a bit overwhelming; my grandfather is currently battling diabetes, and just a few months ago, he underwent heart surgery—specifically, they implanted a pacemaker because his valves were giving him trouble and had essentially become blocked. Today, he received his new medication regimen, which isn't necessarily an issue in itself, but the sheer volume is staggering: he has to take 15 pills a day, broken down into six in the morning, three in the afternoon, and another six in the evening. I can't help but wonder, is this actually healthy? Is there a risk of an accidental overdose when someone is forced to swallow that many tablets at once?...

Well, you aren't a cardiac patient, so you don't have to deal with it.☕

What exactly was your expectation? At the end of the day, the massive amount of processed junk we consume on a daily basis isn't exactly "healthy" either, yet we all seem to manage just fine.
