No, not from any side effects...
From the size of the tablets!.
My usual prescription comes in relatively small tablets easily washed down with a drink, but..
Collected my last batch and watched with concern as the Pharmacist heaved a sack at me akin to Santa Claus’ when he has a present FOR EVERY CHILD in it and, with a wan smile, wished me “Good luck with that!” as I dragged it out the door.
Okay, I’m exaggerating...but not by much. These things are huge. Snapped in half they still dwarf any of my other tablets and I’m pretty sure they’ve given me the box marked “For Elephants use only”!
Apparently they contain exactly the same active (and I presume bone idle) ingredients as my last bunch so why they should be so large remains a mystery to me..
Now please excuse me whilst I find my pestle and mortar and grind them down to mere gravel!
