My Nyquil was made in Canada - Should I take them?
Edited on Mon Jan-24-05 04:30 AM by Cronus Protagonist
I mean President Bush talked about the danger of drugs from third world countries during the debates - and on both the Nyquil and Dayquil boxes of cold medicine I just bought, it says:

Made in Canada
Dist. by Procter & Gamble,
Cincinnatti OH 45202


That means that Procter & Gamble are distributing foreign drugs in the US? Are they trying to poison us all? I think we should report P & G to the FDA so they can investigate...

/sarcasm

1. You're putting your life at risk
You know those Canadians can't be trusted to fill a medicine bottle.

Oh wait, except for flu vaccines. That's okay. Remember that little gem from the third debate?

2. My family and friends have been quaking with fear for years every time we
take our medicine...I know that I personally have been living in fear for the past 12 years when I take my high blood pressure medicine....Even though it has brought down my blood pressure...That's no reason to let down my guard.....You can't be too careful you know!.....:D

6. When they talk about "re-importing of drugs," they don't get it
Our meds are not usually made in this country, so we're not "re-importing" them. They are usually made in other countries, mainly the British Isles, and these sites are regularly inspected, or they wouldn't be chosen. I wouldn't worry.:-)

10. Asscroft says he quit
And I don't blame him. These international drug runners are serious business!
