Prescriptions
There is little consistency in drug packaging. On your first prescription the aspirin are round tablets in the green and silver packaging while the tranquillisers are oval tablets in the silver packaging. The following prescription the aspirin are the oval tablets in the silver packaging while the tranquillisers have become round in the green and silver packaging. So when you take a dozen aspirin for your toothache you are really on tranquillisers. Actually it wasn’t too bad, although the giant green luminescent spiders walking up the wall did worry me a little.

the packet I hear you say but I can’t read the small print, I need glasses.
Then put your glasses on you say. I can’t find them. Old people who need
tablets have poor memories.
It
gets much worse with a dozen different tablets.
