Medications

I am one of those people that does not do well with medications - almost any medication.  However, over the past few weeks I have had to take four prescriptions everyday.  So far - so so on the side effects.

If you haven’t noticed, when you get a prescription the general directions are printed on the label - take two by mouth before meals.  Have you ever wondered why the directions are so specific such as  “by mouth?”  I mean, what do they expect you to do with them?  I have been told by a highly unreliable source that we can all thank Harvey for this.

It seems that Harvey went to a doctor for a “discomfort” and was given a prescription for suppositories.  Harvey finished the prescription and returned to another doctor appointment.  When the doc asked Harvey if he had taken the prescription, Harvey replied, “Yep, twice a day.  But for all the good they did, I might as well have stuck them up my butt.”

Now you know.
