americans you have paracetamol pills packed 100 per box? biggest common box out there is 50, and usual 20 per

You can get 500/bottle at Costco.

And the Costco ones come in a 2-pack.


i’m starting to think there’s something wrong with healthcare out there!



Here in Denmark, regarding painkillers the maximum over the counter is 20 tablets pr. pack, and only 2 packs pr. day at pharmacies (although no control if bought in supermarkets etc.) unless you have a prescription for more - or if you’re a pensioner.
Looking up on wikipedia, even 20 500mg tablets for an 80 kg person could be fatal, especially when consumed with alcohol, so I don’t even get this particular over protective law.

i don’t think there are limits on paracetamol, but there are limits on codeine and such, you need ID for that. it’s just that nobody needs this in these amounts



I buy the thousand capsule twin packs, they’ll get used eventually.

you’re using up enough paracetamol to kill a horse small herd of horses before it goes bad?

Depends how the week goes 🤷


To be fair, horses die from the dumbest shit all the time



Autism speedrun any%



We have those in the UK too, but only over the counter (you need to find a pharmacist willing to sell them to you or have a prescription).
