Even children can go in to a grocery store and purchase all sorts of medications that contain this highly addictive and dangerous substance.
They can legally buy Nyquil, which is 50 percent alcohol mixed with acetaminophen, two substances that the FDA has warned about using together.In fact acetaminophen causes an estimated 7000 deaths a year.

I read a really cool book by Seattle's own WALT CROWLEY the other day, it's called "rites of passage" here's of my favorite lines in the book: "On St. Valentines day, with money provided by JIMI HENDRIX he anyonomously mailed joints to several thousand randomly selected New Yorkers.

You're coughing and sneezing. You can't wait to crawl into bed. But first, you have a decision to make. What kind of medicine are you going to take? This time, try Nyquil and get much-needed rest.

Vicks Nyquil...the "night time sniffling sneezing coughing aching stuffy head fever so you can rest and have a good morning" medicine.
