This is the supplements chart from Price. Somebody needed

it

in email form earlier because they couldn't read the word version, so

after converting it to text and suitable for email, I figured it

would

be a good idea just to post it. This schedule was devised to work

around the Carafate, which has to be taken one hour before and after

any food is eaten, so you are literally planning your whole day

around

it. I have an alternate proposal, and that is to take the

first Carafate on waking up (to coat the stomach), then an hour

later,

eat and take the multivitamin and prilosec (the 7:30 items) then

basically follow it for the rest of the day.
