Must eliminate allergies

[jebbypal]

Right after I stock up on a ton of excedrin. Bristol-Meyers is trying to sell it off to another company and I bet I know what the first change will be. Gorramit to hell.

What? What? No more excedrin?

But you can get the same effect from an asprin, a tylenol, and some caffeine, if you need to. I also like to take Valerian root for my migraines--it's a sedative herb, quite nice.

well, i imagine it will still be excedrin...just figure that it will be reformulated to include cornstarch..which is why i can't do the asprin and tylenol.

And I'm wary of the sedative herbs. Kava Kava always did very odd things for me when i used to take them for tension migraines in college.

I don't care for kava kava. I understand your reluctance; herbs can have side effects just like formulated medicines.

Asprin and tylenol have cornstarch in them? Dude.

Hmm, I supposed you could whip up your own batch of asprin in the lab if you got desperate. :)

Well, there is willowbark. Now if I could only make acetominophen. If only health food stores offered samples of supplements so one could see if the side effects were worth the intended use. Though Kava Kava wasn't bad....just well, made me very buzzed and close to drunk as well as knocking me out for hours at a time.
