Over the Counter Medicine(Vanity)
Self | 07/06/2009 | Vendome

Posted on 07/06/2009 9:13:01 AM PDT by Vendome

This morning I started coughing and sneezing due to allergies.

 

Grabbed the box of Over the Counter Allergy Medicine and it took forever to find the "Directions".

 

I am tired of that nonsense. 

 

 

New rule. 

 

Every time I buy an OTC I am taking a  highlighter  to it so I know what I am suppose to take.

Why do I think you might have already taken too much?

You should've just dialed 911.

WoW...some vanity. Short, to the point, not much else to add.

PS- Claritin works wonders.

May cause drowsiness. Alcohol may intensify this effect. Use care when operating a car or dangerous machines.

No.

It just that the directions are too hard to find and the allergy medicine I grabbed today says “take 1” in 24 hours.

Many other say take 2 every 4-6 hours.

I just want to speed up my ability to find the directions and thought others could use the idea.

In fact, my friend turned 99 today and I am going through her medicines and will do the same to each.

What did you take?? If you took something containing pseudoephedrinebe(SP)? Be carefull taking those pills... Drink lots of water....

They make me too hyper and make my heart race... Ask the pharmicist about taking the pills..There is usually a plastic magnifying lens near the pill counter for seasoned citizens and people with vision problems that helps me read the small print on medication boxes....

Allergies are a pain..it’s tough to find the right medication and the right ammount...Good Luck..

I hope you didn’t buy a kind that requires you to sign a list. The failed drug warriors may be arriving directly to shoot your dog.

Good grief — get a life. Who cares what you do with your highlighter? This would have been a lame vanity in the General/Chat forum, but News/Activism? Sheesh.
