what meds did you take home from Mexico?

I know we will be taking home some Nexium mups, and some of the sublingual pain medication. Has anyone else gotten other meds from Dr. Aceves? I am thinking of asking for a prescription for Ativan to help with the post op stress.

Thoughts?

If you can, get your three month supply of nexium before you leave. I paid 300 bucks for a three month supply here. It is about half that price in Mexico. I did not need any more Toradol (supradol), as my pain was so minimal afterwards. It was mainly esophageal spasms every time I swallowed at first...especially if I could not burp between each swallow of fluids. That was just a 5 minutes or so pain though, until the fluids went down, each time. If you have anxiety, ask about the ativan.

I bought a 3 month supply (5 boxes of 14 pills) of Nexium Mups in the 40 mg size. (can be split in half) and it came to $196 American dollars. As others have said...it's quite a bit more in the States.

As for pain, I find that Liquid Tylenol handles any lingering aches and pains.
