Because then people who have no common sense get hurt & cause unncessary lawsuits.

In this age where people file lawsuits for anything, manufacturers have to be very careful. Therefore, they warn us of everything to cover themselves. I have even seen warnings of 'may contain nuts' on a bag of peanuts!

Wow, there seem to be a lot of these questions today. I wonder why...

Anyways, this question really answers itself. Why, you ask, do sleeping pills warn people? Because they don't want people to take them, thinking it will make them fall asleep later rather than sooner, and to go drive around or something but then fall asleep at the wheel. Not good, so they warn people.


Why, you ask, does coffe say "Caution: Hot", in case someone else picks it up thinking it's a cold beverage, and then gets burned. Again, not good, so they put this thing called a warning.


Makes sense, ehh? Next time, don't ask on this site. Use your brain a little, and do something called thinking. Trust me, it does wonders when these stupid questions pass your mind.
