Pills....


Question Posted Thursday October 13 2005, 9:38 pm

Yes Pills. Me and My two closest friends pop in and outta school. Cough Drops are all we take though. And yes its wrong but we actually are sick and use them just a little more than the suggested dose. I probably take 20 a day for the past week. Is this harmful and should we stop?

Yes this is harmful, and yes you should stop. If you need something to suck on, use jollyranchers.

get jolly ranchers instead because those are supposed to be candy.
the cough drops might not be as effective if you take to many.
i don't know that its actually harmful with cough drops..but try not to use as many cause 20 a day is a ton.

Absolutely! You should stop right away. Stuff like that can be really addicting. Maybe you should try just sucking on regular candy like mints or creme savers, or chewing gum. If you find that it's really hard to stop or that you can't you should talk to someone about it. A school nurse, a counselor, doctor, hotline, your parents...having too many cough drops when you're sick isn't a HUGE problem (not at this point anyways) and probably just asking your parents about it might help you out. Good luck!

No, overdosing on a medicine is a perfectly safe and fun hobby for you and your friends to partake in....


OF COURSE YOU SHOULD STOP! Overdosing on anything is bad and could harm your body. Please find something safe and fun to do, like play X-Box or prance in fields.

Coughdrops are medicated, and therefore taking too many could cause health problems. Don't wanna believe me, that is perfectly fine. But if something happens to your health, just remeber that the really cool badass guy on Advicenators told you so.

RockStoleMySoul answered Thursday October 13 2005, 9:39 pm:
Wow. Yes... You should not be eating those like candy. They could make you extremley sick. The ingredients are to make you better. And you could get addicted to them. Yeah, I know how dumb that sounds, but you really can get addicted! Choose something else, like gum.
