NUDGES!I am always willing to give nudges where needed; metas should be about fun, not frustration. Send me what you have done so far because often you are closer than you think!

Off the couch and confirmed. A marvelous puzzle with fun clues. Must be challenging to come up with so many long words that work in parallel! Thanks!

You can thank the brilliant Josh for the grid. If you have seen any of his creations you know he is the Zen master of difficult construction.

OK, as far as I can tell from folks who have either posted or PMed there are at the very least 17 cats running around out there. They will no doubt end up on or off the couch, doing something undesirable in the sand or stepping into the transporter beam....

Got it with help. This was brilliant and more so as I review it!

In retrospect I shouldn't have needed the nudges -- isn't that always the way? -- but the cat has been freed!

A total of 23 (at least 23 reported) of you took the time to indulge our silliness. Thank you all for trying the puzzle and I'm sure we will be back again for another duet in the future.

Solution:
Five two-word medical puns are placed symmetrically in the grid, the answers to which are:
TAPEWORMS
OXYGENTANK
AUNTYBIOTICS
LEGIONELLA
TASESACHS
Taking the first letters of each theme entry, we get TWO TABLETS, which is the answer.
