my mother was discharge yesterday from the hospital with the following drugs to be taken by mouth once a day: Benicar, Sensipar, Aspirin, Metoprolol, Colcrys, Glimepriride. Can these all be taken at the same time, if so, are there any side effects to taking them all at once.

HI,
There are different classes of drugs prescribed;
Sensipar (for calcium/Paratharmone balance) is better taken immediately after dinner; Benicar and asprin are taken after breakfast, Metoprolol after lunch, Glimeperide 20 min before breakfast. Colcrys can be taken at any convinient time, depends on number of tablets taken per day (better ask your doctor).
Generally there are no major drug interactions between them; however all tablets should not be taken at once, which can bring severe gastric irritation, vomitings etc.
hope this helped.
