Hi Denise,

Yes, it is a lot of pills to get down at once. But it's a small price to pay cause this regimen has been working wonders for many of us on this site.

I take the xeloda right after breakfast and dinner. I have a second cup of coffee at work and try to finish it by 9:30 a.m. so that I take my Tykerb at around 11:30 (2 hours after last meal) and have to wait and hour to eat so lunch is about 12:30 or 1. Find a schedule that works for you and try to stick with it, so you can remember.

Good luck
