The same day I wonder? Did any need more than a nice cuppa or asprin?

"Did any need more than a nice cuppa or aspirin? " they were just kept for observation, might have got a cuppa but no aspirin. can't find the link now but basically felt sick, went to hospital, had a rest, went home. there was a report in 2009 where a kid chewed 45 pieces of nicotine gum and was sick, tinyurl.com/l4kqqo You may notice that this article states that this 14yr old had taken nearly double the official lethal dose of nicotine for an adult. Superkid? or just the fact that the lethal dose is about 10 times higher than what the health experts quote. Worst part of this is 297 Varenicline/Champix incidents. Quit AND die |
