Hamburger please
I prefer the gourmet variety, prescription strength, the dosage of four in one, uncoated, in an orange plastic bottle.
Chris treger! 👉👉
I still find it crazy you can get them in such a large bottle.
In UK we get like a small box of 16 or 24. Even when prescribed it just ends up being multiples of boxes.
When I had them prescribed here in NL i just got 4 smaller boxes still inside the larger box they use to ship them.
A whole pharmacy could run of the barrels they showed here.
I think it’s an American single weeks worth perhaps 😂
I only wanna have to remember to buy them once a year damn it.
I grind mine up and sprinkle it into my morning coffee.
Just get the 1000mg soluble powder bags. Worked wonders for a inflamed tendon I had, downside being I didn't feel it if I stubbed my toe.
Costco has safety dance orange hotdog flavored ibuprofen.
Medicate if you want to
You can leave your pain behind
We gotta use blue goo pills because my fiancee is allergic to corn and its byproducts, and the gelcaps are cornstarch-free. Personally idgaf what shape the pills are.
Hot dog is for acetaminophen. Then you can put them in the same bottle when traveling
Gotta be the turkey twizzler variety.
Sugar coated, though I'll do naproxen overnight, it lasts longer.
I can't do either unless absolutely necessary, causes too much stomach pain from prior GI bleeds
Pill shape matters not.
Size, on the other hand... Fuck large pills, I'd rather take 5 small ones than 1 large one.
Either one seems to work with rectal administration, though the hotdog variety is a little easier to push in.
