Rant/advice

It's illegal to have someone else's medication. You could call the cops if you wanted. But...that's something I would do because I'm pety like that

I think you should just be blunt. “We’d like all of his medication to be kept with him” - simple and a complete sentence. You shouldn’t have to explain/justify yourself & how he decides to use HIS medication.

Its his prescription and is in his name so no one else should have access to it apart from him. I know this is different but my partners mum is like it with similar stuff. Like keeping his passport so he doesn’t lose it even know we wouldn’t. It’s a bit silly is all and I’m thinking it’s something to do with either control or overprotection maybe. It is a bit weird because you are both adults. I find a lot of older people treat myself and other people who are younger but still adults like kids. It sucks but if it was me I’d ask for the medication and if she refuses or says anything else then I’d tell her we are both adults and the prescription belongs to someone else, not her

Thank you everyone! I just found it to be so random and weird and out of pocket for her. Then again we’ve never needed her for anything until now. He only had 2 of the ibuprofen before getting the other prescription today since he takes them every 8 hours before coming home. She said it so confidently about it being at her house and I’m like wait why though.. and checked with my husband once he woke up from a nap because I wanted to make sure I wasn’t hearing things since I thought that can’t be right?!

this sounds a bit like you are parenting your husband 🤣can’t he take care of his medicines and diet himself?
