Is too many medications unhealthy?

I'm not sure if how much I'm taking is healthy for me. I am on the birth control, Implanon. That is the bar that is planted in your arm for 3 years. I am also taking Phentermine for hunger suppressant and HCG shots for inches off my waist. I get headaches a lot so I take like, 4 Ibeprofins a day. Then I can't ever sleep and I take a sleep aid. Is this too much medicine in my body?

    Phen will give you headache and make your restless. If you have strong enough will power you don't need Phen. Better stick with the HCG + fatburner.

    If you ask me i will say yes, it is way too much. I won't even stack HCG + Phen.

    Every medication has side-effects. When you take a medication you are forcing your body to act in a way that is not normal, bypassing all your body's normal functions and processes. Forcing one process to change will inevitably cause one, or more likely many, other processes to change as well. We call these side-effects.

    Medicine is currently the third leading cause of death in the United States.

    Every day people die or have very serious reactions to medications. You should take very seriously every medication you put in your body. Know the possible side-effects and interactions they may have with other medications. And ask yourself if there is a better way to achieve health... because ultimately a medication will not give you health.
