Well, the way I do it is that when I wake up, which is usually very early M-F, I first take my adderall, so I can wake up, along with the meds that have to be taken on an empty stomach. Then, at least an hour later, I take the meds that have to be taken with food, including the Effexor. Problem is, my morning routine has been very inconsistent of late, so the time I take the Effexor varies. I was experimenting with taking the food meds first, and save the non-food meds for mid morning. If I have an appetite in the early am, that works., although I then often forget the take my non-food meds later. But lately, I've had a number of days when I forget the take the food meds, inc. effexor, until very late--like early afternoon--once as late as 3:30 pm. I don't like when this happens--I feel "off". I've been trying to buy these drinkable yogurts so that I can take my food meds with the yogurt, if I am on the run and/or not up for eating yet in the morning.

I need to work on getting back into a good routine.

BTW, I once forgot to take my meds all day. I remembered by early evening, but thought I should just wait until the next day. Big mistake. I felt very wierd all night and most of the next day. Kind of ill.
