>       2.  I purchased the one-a-day type multiple vitamin and mineral
> tablets from Walmart and give her 2 a day - double the amount. She
> doesn't eat much..... is pickie .... so it's necessary.  I'm aware that
> the "enteric coating" on the outside of the tablets is way too heavy,
> preventing proper absorption (sometimes no absorption at all - and the
> whole tablet just passes thru without any beneficial effect).  So I cut
> the tablets in half with a pill cutter that I got at Walmart and she
> gets 1/2 a tablet 4 times a day. (breakfast - lunch- supper-bedtime)
> 
>       3. She gets a 1000 mg. capsule of MSM at bedtime.
>            She gets a capsule of Echinacea at Lunch
>            She gets a capsule of Ginko Biloba at supper
>            She get a capsule of natural vitamin E at breakfast
> 
>       4. Her prescriptions call for 5 mg Gliburide 4 times a day for a
> total of 20 milligrams. When she was first diagnosed her blood sugar
> levels were in the 250 range.  She started off with 5 mg and at every
> subsequent visit the doctor increased the dose by 5 mg more until she
> was up to 20 mg per day.  At that level her blood sugar count came down
> and fluctuated in the range of 90-210 which was a lot better but still
> not where we wanted it.  Her other presciption is for Prinivil, 2.5 mg
> once a day to help protect the liver.
